Rome (Italy).<\/strong> On\u00a0 27 April 2026 the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life<\/a><\/strong><\/span> have published \u201cIntegral Ecology in the life of the family”<\/strong> a document developed to transmit in the family the care of Creation and of human life.<\/p>\n

The Document was born to respond to the appeals of Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV to listen to the cry of the poor and of the Earth and to offer a concrete response, putting into action the principles of the post-synodal Exhortation Amoris Laetitia<\/em> and the teachings of the Encyclical Laudato si\u2019<\/em>. The volume is the fruit of the joint efforts of these two Dicasteries of the Holy See and its preparation has seen the direct involvement also of theologians, counselors, and married couples.<\/p>\n

\u201cFamily values are the fruitful soil from which all of society grows. In order to care properly for our common home and for all people, families must be the model,\u201d <\/em>wrote the Prefects of the two Dicasteries, Card. Michael Czerny, S.J., and Card. Kevin Farrell.<\/p>\n

As the Prefects state, the Document \u201calthough dedicated principally to the families, it concerns us all.\u201d <\/em>In fact, anyone, in their own state of life, can find advice and inspiration to contribute to improving the relationships and the environment, promoting an equitable and sustainable world in which Creation and human dignity are defended and protected. Families, as the constitutive element of society, can become the motor of this profound cultural change.<\/p>\n

The volume proposes useful cues and indications to families, church groups and individual readers to address current environmental challenges and to promote the integral development of every person. The first part<\/strong> presents fundamental concepts based on the most significant writings of Pope Francis; the second part<\/strong>, the heart of the volume, contains thematic chapters that reflect seven objectives from Laudato si\u2019<\/em>:<\/p>\n
