Sono passati cinque anni dalla pubblicazione della Laudato si ’di Papa Francesco, e la domanda rivolta a San Giovanni Battista dalla folla confusa – “che cosa dobbiamo fare?” – resta aperta: molto è stato fatto e molto resta ancora da fare. La pandemia da Covid-19 sta producendo una “catastrofe educativa”, pertanto è urgente un processo educativo per la formazione integrale delle coscienze, al fine di promuovere un'autentica ecologia integrale. Il documento “In cammino verso la cura della nostra casa comune” si presenta come una “roadmap” verso la conversione ecologica, poiché il suo contenuto coinvolge direttamente i processi educativi. Inoltre, sottolinea l'importanza delle università cattoliche nel tracciare percorsi educativi verso la conversione ecologica. L'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore si sta occupando intensamente di questioni educative in linea con le raccomandazioni espresse nella Laudato si ’. Che si stia preparando a diventare un’Università Laudato si’?

Abstract
Five years have passed from the Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’ publication: much has been achieved and much more remains to be done. “What is it we should do?”, the confused crowd ask to St. John Baptist; the question remains still open and asks for renewed answers. Covid-19 pandemic is producing an “educational catastrophe”, thus it is necessary an educational process aimed at an integral formation of consciences, in order to promote an authentic integral ecology, Pope Francis’ teaching essence. The document “Journeying towards care for our common home” is a roadmap towards ecological conversion, as its content involves directly educational processes. Moreover, it highlights the importance of catholic universities in tracing educational paths towards ecological conversion. The Catholic University of the Sacred Heart is intensely dealing with educational issues in line with the recommendations expressed in Laudato si’. Is it preparing to be a Laudato si’ University?I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
