We’re excited to announce the launch of a major website update and a new certificate program for institutions in the Laudato Si’ Action Platform. These updates are designed to make it easier than ever for participants to respond to Pope Francis’ call to care for our common home while celebrating the efforts of institutions committed to ecological conversion.
Certificates Celebrate Institutional Participation
The newly launched certificate program formally recognizes institutions—such as dioceses, parishes, schools, and more—that actively participate in the platform. These certificates can be proudly displayed to inspire communities and stakeholders while demonstrating a commitment to ecological sustainability.
Institutions can renew their certificates annually by meeting simple participation requirements, ensuring ongoing engagement with the platform and its mission. Learn more about the requirements here.
A Redesigned Website for Greater Accessibility
The updated Laudato Si’ Action Platform website introduces several features to make participation more accessible and impactful for Catholic institutions and communities around the world:
- Enhanced Navigation and Dashboard: A streamlined design with an interactive dashboard makes accessing tools and resources easier than ever.
- Easier Access to Effective Actions: A revamped system helps participants identify the most impactful steps they can take to advance ecological goals.
- Refined Tracking Tools: An intuitive checklist enables participants to monitor their progress year after year.
“As we enter a new year in our collective journey as stewards of creation, the updated Laudato Si’ Action Platform website and its innovative certificate program for institutions are based on the Catholic Church’s commitment to care for our common home,” said Sr. Alessandra Smerilli, FMA, Secretary for the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development. “This helpful tool will assist institutions to engage in dialogue, reflection, and concrete action, witnessing to the Church’s mission of unity and peace for all creation.”
