Rome (Italy). More than three years after Pope Francis’ invitation, launched on 12 September 2019, to build together a Global Educational Pact, Card. José Tolentino de Mendonça, Prefect of the Dicastery for Culture and Education, addresses all Institutions and educational realities by proposing a questionnaire:
“At this point along the way, there are many of us who want to know how this proposal for a global alliance has been accepted and how it is being implemented and built in the various contexts involved. Therefore, the promoting Committee has prepared a questionnaire that pursues a twofold objective: on the one hand, to acquire awareness of the progress of the pact construction process and, on the other, to offer the opportunity to ‘infect’ and inspire each other in order to strengthen the level of implementation of this global pact even at the local level. I therefore invite you to answer the questionnaire, which you will find at this link:

The results that we will collect will allow us to have an x-ray, hopefully accurate, of the state of the art of the project in order to continue in the most effective way.”
The Prefect, together with the Promoting Committee, thanks for your collaboration and expressing gratitude for the passion for education and for the daily work for the benefit of the new generations, invites the questionnaire to be disseminated to other educational realities (Catholic and non), to other networks of educational centers, public or private, and to those who are believed to be interested, in order to have the point of view of the various actors of this local and global alliance.
Sr. Runita Borja, General Councilor for Youth Ministry of the Institute of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, together with the Sisters of the Sector, will share the initiative with the Provinces of the world.
“We need the courage to generate processes that consciously take on the existing fragmentation and the oppositions that we actually carry with us; the courage to recreate the fabric of relationships in favor of a humanity capable of speaking the language of fraternity”. (Pope Francis, Video Message 15 October 2020)
