Pope Francis launches the Global Educational Alliance initiative to shape the future of humanity by forming mature individuals who can overcome division and care for our common home.

The Vatican will host a meeting on 14 May 2020 in the Paul VI Hall to reflect on the theme “Reinventing the Global Educational Alliance”.
The Holy See Press Office announced that the Pope has invited representatives from various religions, NGOs, academia, and cultural and political leaders to attend, in hopes of endorsing the “Global Compact on Education”.
Renew dialogue
Pope Francis lent his support to the initiative on Thursday.
In his written message, the Pope said the meeting “will rekindle our dedication for and with young people, renewing our passion for a more open and inclusive education, including patient listening, constructive dialogue, and better mutual understanding.”
The goal, he stressed, is to develop “a new universal solidarity and a more welcoming society,” adding that education is key to driving positive change.
In an educational village
“Never before has there been such need to unite our efforts in a broad educational alliance, to form mature individuals capable of overcoming division and antagonism, and to restore the fabric of relationships for the sake of a more fraternal humanity,” he said.
Quoting an African proverb – “It takes a whole village to educate a child” – Pope Francis called for the creation of an “educational village”.
In such a system, he said, everyone would participate according to their respective roles to form a “network of open, human relationships.”
The Pope called it an alliance that “integrates and respects all aspects of the person, uniting studies and everyday life, teachers, students and their families, and civil society in its intellectual, scientific, artistic, athletic, political, business, and charitable dimensions.”
And he laid out several steps towards creating this “educating village”.
Along paths of fraternity
For this project to succeed, Pope Francis said, fraternity must be allowed to flourish and discrimination swept aside, as he urged in the Document on Human Fraternity signed in Abu Dhabi with the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar.
The Pope said the first step is finding “the courage to place the human person at the center.” This means recognizing the world’s interconnectedness and re-thinking economics, politics, growth, and progress, giving pride-of-place to an integral ecology that rejects the throw-away culture.
Next, Pope Francis called for summoning up “the courage to capitalize on our best energies”. The status quo should be replaced by giving education “a long-term vision”, to create a new humanism. The result, he added, will be “men and women who are open, responsible, prepared to listen, dialogue and reflect with others, and capable of weaving relationships with families, between generations, and with civil society.”
The Pope said a further step is “the courage to train individuals who are ready to offer themselves in service to the community.” Service, he said, is the “pillar of the culture of encounter”, and means helping the neediest of people and discovering that “there is more joy in giving than in receiving.”
To direct history
Pope Francis concluded by inviting everyone to commit themselves to improving their communities and to promoting “forward-looking initiatives that can give direction to history and change it for the better.”
“Let us seek solutions together, boldly undertake processes of change, and look to the future with hope.”

Bashar said that gold dust in the atmosphere would do the trick, but that we won't do it.
Dang! TY
No one ever details just what they want us to do to actually combat climate change aka global warming aka grand solar mininum, etc and all the climate fear porn.
why is it that the estimated Bitcoin Halving is probably occuring on the same date the Pope is having his "global event"? 14th of May 2020 https://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/
This ties a bit in with the Eth Classic session, and the woman Kukka who was a teacher, and Culver who was working for the UN in a program regarding education etc.
It should give television inspiration for another Good Pope movie.
Seems we might have the first good Pope in a longgggg time. Wonder when he’ll do some ET disclosure
Wonderful explanation Till. Thank you so much. We will need great folks with deep understanding of Astrology to help with the timeline. I hope you will be able to join us for that. Edd.
Yes, Francis knows what's about to happen - the initial steps into the new Age. Luckily, he's one of the good guys in his profession. For quite some time, our Sun and somehow also all of humanity has been moving out of the constellation of Pisces into the constellation of Aquarius. Kind of an overlapping process which began back in the 17th century. The Pisces energy of devotion to an ideal (notice the pisces symbolism in early christendom) has played out its karmic role over the past 2000 years. Definitely the "end of the world" for those few who might be asked by the many to give up their "god-given" (me-given) privileges. That Pisces water will be poured into the water jug which Aquarius brings on his shoulder to quench our thirst for Truth. The water is thus transmuted into the Water of Life, i.e. fullness of life through re-establishing right human relationships which start with sharing. We will start anew, lessons learned, into the remaining 2000 years of Aquarius. Humanity's task during the Age of Aquarius will be group consciousness and cooperation. As in all the ages, there will be Teachers for humanity. E.g. Buddha, Plato, and Laozi were such Teachers for a previous Age.
