Themes: ecological theology, sustainability, building learning communities in your own context. Are you wondering ... What would it take to animate the call to justice, peace and integrity of creation such that we learn together how to live and work sustainably on our planet? What is required for your organisation to take the transformative journey to ecological sustainability? What wisdom exists in Catholic Teaching that may help you and your organisation respond to the call for ecological conversion and sustaining God's Creation? What would it take to truly harness the energies of God's love? Catholic Earthcare Australia offers ASSISI as a comprehensive and holistic sustainability initiative for organisations to achieve sustainability. A three-day intensive is central to the formation experience. Participants are required to do preparatory work and follow-up work. During the course of the formation experience, participants are exposed to contemporary ecological theology, scientific understandings of sustainability and transformative social processes that can inspire and support this critical work. Would you like to join with others to seek, discern and transform a new way of being that responds to the call for ecological conversion through participation in our ASSISI Formation - Animators for Sustainability program?
