OPEN TO THE WORLDGlobal Dimension

Our desire to effectively help students face global challenges (ICJSE visions statement)

To truly educate our students within the 21st century, we must equip them with skills to succeed and contribute in a world that is constantly changing, a world that calls for intensified needs for global collaboration, communication and understanding.

We must instill in our students a commitment to take on global challenges with a new level of responsibility. We must prepare them to actively contribute to a more just and sustainable world; we must prepare them to be global citizens.

With it we want our students to feel capable of intervening in the international area and to assume the new reality of a world that is built beyond narrow frontiers, where we are all citizens and stewards...»Fr.
