The Secretary General of the Synod of Bishops has announced the opening of a web site in preparation for the XV Ordinary General Assembly of Bishops on the theme: Young People, the Faith and Vocational Discernment. The Synod will be celebrated in October 2018 and its website is youth.synod2018.va.

This web site, says the press release, will encourage a wider participation of young people throughout the world in the upcoming event by allowing them to not only receive information about the Synod but also get involved in it by contributing to its preparations.

In view of this, the web site has posted a youth-oriented questionnaire available in different languages (Italian, English, French, Spanish and Portuguese). Young people in the 16-29 age group are asked to fill out the form and send it to the Secretary General no later than 30 November 2017. The elements that emerge from the answers will serve for drafting the Instrumentum Laboris in preparation for the Synod.
