The International Academy of Catholic Leaders offers a variety of programs designed to train leaders committed to the common good, from a Christian perspective and in fidelity to the Social Doctrine of the Church.
Since 2010, we have collaborated with leaders in the social, political, and religious spheres throughout Latin America and the world. Throughout this time, our work has had a wide reach and has transformed the lives of thousands of people committed to the common good.
“The opening of the Academy of Catholic Leaders in Montevideo in 2018 has been a joy for the Church in Uruguay. A consistent number of young people enrolled and have participated with much fruit. The Academy responds to a need in our pluralistic and democratic society: that there be a qualified Catholic presence in the public sphere that, together with other expressions of thought and action, is capable of building a more just and free society.”
“I am pleased to know that the Academy, which I have had the pleasure of knowing for some years, continues to promote the Social Doctrine of the Church missionarily in full communion and living its legitimate autonomy as a lay initiative. Currently extended in eleven countries of Latin America, I have been informed that it is also making its first forays into Europe and the United States. Congratulations on all this dynamism! May God bless the thousands of students and friends of the Academy!”
I ask God to bless […] this project, which was born in the heart of God, our Academy of Catholic Leaders. Every day it fills me with hope, with the certainty that it becomes an oasis in the middle of the desert to guide so many towards the construction of the common good, to satisfy the poorest.
