La Compagnie de Jésus (Jésuites)

La Compagnie de Jésus (Jésuites)

La Compagnie de Jésus (connue sous le nom de Jésuites) est un ordre religieux catholique fondé en 1540 par Saint Ignace de Loyola et ses compagnons. La mission jésuite est une mission de réconciliation, œuvrant pour que les femmes et les hommes puissent se réconcilier avec Dieu, avec eux-mêmes, entre eux et avec la création de Dieu.

Depuis sa fondation, l’Ordre est passé des dix premiers à plus de 16 000 jésuites dans le monde. Dès le début, la Compagnie de Jésus a servi l’Église en Europe ainsi qu’en Asie, en Afrique et dans les Amériques. Depuis lors, ils ont connu une croissance et ont dépassé l’ampleur apostolique des premiers jésuites dans leurs efforts éducatifs, intellectuels, pastoraux et missionnaires.

Les plus de 16 000 jésuites du monde entier viennent de 112 pays et appartiennent à environ 80 provinces et régions, mais l’ordre a un caractère universel qui transcende ces frontières. En effet, les jésuites sont appelés à aller partout sans être arrêtés par les frontières géographiques et culturelles.

En 2019, le Père Arturo Sosa SJ, Supérieur Général des Jésuites, a promulgué quatre Préférences apostoliques universelles pour guider la Compagnie de Jésus dans l’incarnation de la mission de réconciliation et de justice dans tous les services apostoliques que les Jésuites et les laïcs accompliront au cours des 10 prochaines années. Les Préférences donnent un horizon, un point de référence à toute la Compagnie de Jésus. Ils captent notre imagination et éveillent nos désirs. Ils nous unissent dans notre mission. Les nouvelles Préférences sont quatre domaines vitaux pour notre monde d’aujourd’hui. La Compagnie de Jésus leur accordera une attention particulière au cours des dix prochaines années. Nous vous invitons à en savoir plus et à agir avec nous ! Nous voulons faire une différence évangélique.

On World Youth Skills Day, July 15, Canadian Jesuits International (CJI) celebrates the contributions that young people make in shaping a better world for all. CJI also supports initiatives to equip young people with the skills they need for dignified employment, entrepreneurship, and full participation in the economic, political, and cultural life of society.

CJI highlights its support for a project by Fe y Alegría that aims to improve access to fair and decent employment for at-risk and vulnerable youth across Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Cuba. 

The project provides participants with training programs that align with current labour market demands and that actively transform their lives and their communities. The program also includes career orientation, vocational testing, job fairs, internships with private sector employers and professional employment placement within 17 designated Fe y Alegría education centres.

Founded in 1955 by Jesuit priest José María Vélaz, SJ, Fe y Alegría is a federation of local educational institutions that provides education to marginalized populations in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. 

According to the UNESCO, the theme of this year’s observance of World Youth Skills Day, Skills for a shared future, focuses on “the need to develop innovative youth skills that prepare young people to successfully participate in societies and economies, where they can lead with empathy, communicate across cultures, build resilience and contribute to a better future.”

Young people “need more than technical skills alone,” said UNESCO, citing how artificial intelligence, the green transition and rapid societal shifts are changing the nature of work. “They need a balanced set of competencies that combines technical, digital, AI, green, socio-emotional and civic skills with the human qualities that technology cannot replace.”

CJI Executive Director Jenny Cafiso and International Programs Coordinator Juan Emilio Hernandez are attending an assembly in Chile of the network of social centers of the Conferencia de Provinciales Jesuitas de America (CPAL; Conference of Jesuit Provincials of America). 

The meeting aims to create a framework that situates them “within a culture of encounter in the current context based on dialogue, reconciliation and peace.” Participants will also exchange ideas on how to clarify their organizations’ role in “influencing the strengthening of democracy and the global Ignatian Advocacy Network.” Attendees will also have an opportunity to visit CPAL-supported social programs. 

Jenny and Juan will also have a chance to meet with some CJI partners who are attending the assembly.

Your donations to the Venezuelan earthquake relief efforts are making a tangible difference.
Here are some photos of the vital work being done by our Jesuit partners — @jrs_venezuela, @feyalegriave and more — on the ground.  Beyond distributing essential relief items, teams are providing temporary shelter, critical psychosocial support, and more to families navigating this crisis. But the needs remain immense.
Tens of thousands of Venezuelans are still facing uncertainty and profound loss. Homes have been destroyed, livelihoods disrupted, and entire communities are struggling to recover from the shock of this life-changing disaster.
They still need us. Please consider donating to CJI's humanitarian relief fund today to help them rebuild: Click link in bio.

Happy International Day of Cooperatives! 

On this special day, Canadian Jesuits International reaffirms its support for the democratic ownership model, which allows people to come together in solidarity to build sustainable enterprises that meet their needs and support their communities. 

CJI highlights the role that its long-time Jesuit partner, Comparte, plays in building alternative and supportive socio-economic models in 11 countries:Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru and Spain. 

Comparte (meaning “to share”) is a network of the Jesuit Conference of Provincials in Latin America and the Caribbean (CPAL), which believes that the world can and should be changed so that everyone, especially the poor and marginalized, can enjoy the benefits of a just and sustainable economy. 

Its current project aims to improve the sustainability of 116 economic initiatives managed by producer organizations involved in diverse industries, including agriculture (coffee, cocoa, honey), livestock (poultry, guinea pigs), services (savings/credit groups, sustainable tourism), and manufacturing (textiles, footwear). Click link in bio to visit our website and learn more. 

The theme of this year’s celebration, “Cooperatives for a Peaceful World,” recognizes the contribution of cooperative enterprises to social justice, inclusion, and solidarity. 

Cooperatives are people-centred institutions that can foster trust, reinforce social cohesion, and unite communities around common needs and aspirations, says the UN. 

In a world characterized by conflict, inequality, polarization and declining trust, the theme is a reminder that peace requires more than the absence of violence; it also calls for inclusion, fairness, dialogue and economic security, says the UN.

CJI calls on Canada to empower corporate watchdog, not scrap it
[Take Action: Click link in bio]

Canadian Jesuits International (CJI) joins the Canadian Network on Corporate Accountability (CNCA) in expressing deep concern over the Government of Canada’s decision to eliminate the Office of the Canadian Ombudsperson for Responsible Enterprise (CORE). 

As a member of the CNCA, CJI has long advocated for stronger measures to ensure that Canadian companies respect human rights and the environment wherever they operate. This commitment is rooted in the experiences of our Jesuit partners and the communities they serve in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Some of them have witnessed the devastating impacts of irresponsible extractive projects first-hand, while others have suffered as a result of them, experiencing displacement, environmental degradation, the loss of livelihoods, and violence. 

Although CJI and other civil society organizations have long criticized the CORE’s lack of independence and investigatory powers, eliminating the office is not the answer. Instead, its mandate should be strengthened, and it should be provided  with the necessary tools to investigate allegations of abuse and hold Canadian corporations accountable for their actions. 

Together with our partners and fellow members of the CNCA, we call on the Government of Canada to reinstate the CORE and equip the office with the tools and independence it needs to effectively serve people whose human and environmental rights have been violated due to unjust and irresponsible practices by Canadian companies. 

We invite our supporters to join us in urging Prime Minister Mark Carney to reinstate the CORE, this time with the powers and independence it has always needed.

Canadian Jesuits International is supporting a project by the Jesuit Refugee Service  in South Sudan that will improve the mental health, psycho-social well-being, and resilience of 7,273 refugees and returnees from Sudan, as well as members of communities that host them in Renk and Maban. 

A,mong others, the project will help make it easier for 1,241 children from refugee and host communities to access education. It will also ensure that 1,780 people displaced by the conflict in Sudan are protected and supported through various mental health and psycho-social support services. 

The Sudan conflict, now entering its fourth year, has been described by the United Nations as “the world’s largest humanitarian and displacement crisis.” It has left nearly 34 million people, or 65% of the population, “in urgent need of humanitarian support,” said the UN. Around 14 million people have been forced to leave their homes, with 4.4 million of them crossing into neighbouring countries such as South Sudan, Chad, and Egypt.

Our Jesuit partners in Venezuela have sent us more videos showing the extent of the destruction following the deadly earthquakes on June 24. 
The Jesuit Refugee Service, Fe y Alegría and other Jesuit organisations are on the ground, providing emergency support to those affected by the earthquakes. This includes temporary shelter, essential relief items, protection services and psychosocial support. 
We are still accepting donations to support these efforts in northern Venezuela. Click the link in our bio (Venezuela Humanitarian Relief) to donate now.

Our partners have worked in Venezuela for many years, building experienced teams and well-established networks of people who are already responding to the emergency.
