The vision of Laudato Si’ Spirit is to be a source of support and encouragement for participation in the wider Laudato Si’ Action Platform. Laudato Si’ Action Platform is the international movement of the Catholic Church’s overall strategy for implementing Laudato Si’…A journey towards full sustainability in the holistic spirit of integral ecology.
How to Engage with the Laudato Si' Action Platform:
The Laudato Si’ Action Platform (LSAP) is an action-oriented 7-year ecological conversion journey in the spirit of integral ecology intended to support and empower communities, institutions and all people of good will to achieve total sustainability. Taking a truly ground-up approach, it is rooted in the strengths and realities of communities around the world, empowering all to take “decisive action, here and now” as we journey towards a better future together. (LS 161)
The LSAP is for everyone and any community or group journeying towards integral ecology, whether you’re already adjusting practices or just starting out. Participating in LSAP provides practical guidance, educational and spiritual resources, encouragement, ideas, and support along the way. The structure offers a framework for engagement and celebrating progress.
Enrolling in the LSAP is a commitment to the 7-year journey. Each year of participation includes completing a new self-assessment, reflection, and Action Plan. This structure is intended to provide support while embracing progress, not perfection.
- Self-Assessment: Completed yearly to track progress
- Reflection: Upload a document or video that captures your perspective through the years
- Action Plan: Implement an Action Plan each year. Either create and adjust a long-term 7-year Action Plan or create yearly short-term Action Plans.
Sample timeline
Enrollment: February 2022
