We launch today, in continuity with the results of the survey on the 4th Universal Apostolic Preference of the Society of Jesus, the campaign: Jesuits for Climate Justice: Faith in Action at COP30.

Some years ago, the Society of Jesus received the Universal Apostolic Preferences (UAPs) from Pope Francis. We are now in the second phase of their implementation. Focusing on the fourth UAP - to collaborate in the care of our common home - the Secretariat for Social Justice and Ecology (SJES) was charged with conducting a universal survey, the results of which highlight both our progress and the challenges ahead. On the day we celebrate World Earth Day, Father General Arturo Sosa wrote to the apostolic body presenting the survey results, inviting everyone to strengthen our faith commitment to care for the integrity of creation and build a more just and sustainable future.
