Xaverian Missionaries

The Global Education Project is an exciting project that aims to respond to this need by:

• Recognising the reality of global interdependence
• promoting the idea that diversity is a good thing; it aims at making connections across culture and faith with individuals, schools and communities.
• greater understanding and tolerance of different faiths and ethnic origin
•  facilitating change and empowering action locally and globally, at grass roots level, to transform all vestiges of deprivation, disadvantage, injustice, inequality, discrimination, prejudice etc.
• helping people to develop the awareness and skills that allow them to enter into positive dialogue with one another
• encouraging people to embrace and explore their own identity and accept and appreciate the identity of others
• developing a mission and global spirituality to sustain and support those engaged in work of solidarity and global justice

The Project is animated by a powerful vision of what the social cohesion of the 21st Century will consist of, and how it will come about. Every aspect of its work focuses on this vision and tries to make it a reality. The purpose of the Global Education Project, then, is to bring people together to explore their experience and learn from each other; to answer an urgent need for security and hope; and to recognize the signs of the times, to weave a holistic, coherent interpretation out of them, and to work towards a creative response at a local scale, which has global perspective. It is our modern attempt to realise the dream of Conforti “to make the world a single family”
