On Monday, July 15, some members of the Secretariat for the Ministry of the Order met at the provincial offices of “Escola Pia de Catalunya” to program the II International Congress of Piarist Education, which will take place in Budapest (Hungary) from March 10 to 14, 2025.
The event will bring together 200 to 220 educators of the Pious Schools who will reflect on the great educational challenges of the 21st century in fidelity to the charism of St. Joseph Calasanz. In the mornings, lectures will address substantive issues that round tables and testimonies will complement. In the afternoon, each Province will have the opportunity to present a significant educational experience, and workshops will be organized around different aspects of the Global Education Pact in the beautiful setting of the city of Budapest (Hungary), where the Pious Schools have a long educational tradition.
We present the Congress logo:
One heart. We educate beyond knowledge because we are committed to a comprehensive education in the Calasanz way, which seeks to touch the hearts of little ones. The heart is also represented in 3D, giving the composition a more modern look and highlighting the complexity of a task with different angles of vision.
The lines in the form of rings want to highlight the dynamism of Piarist education in its ability to adapt. In addition, it wants to be a nod to the logo of the Global Education Pact, where the child’s heart is the gravitational center from which educational actions are carried out, cared for, etc… The different lines represent the multilateral nature of the educational act, which is played out by very different factors. The lines give expressiveness and dynamism to the image and reinforce the central idea of education around the person’s center.
Rest assured; we will be providing more detailed information to those responsible for the Piarist ministry in each Demarcation. This will ensure that you are fully informed and prepared for your role in this Congress.
