Scholas.social is an online, collaborative and multi-religious platform that seeks to connect educational institutions all over the world so that by assisting one another they can transform their pedagogical projects into reality.
The new digital platform, the first of its kind, was realized by Scholas Occurrentes, the worldwide web of institutes for education that came into being at the urging of Pope Francis. Scholas.social, a kind of educational Facebook based on four elements (inclusion, cooperation, participation and global vision), allows schools participating in the program throughout the world to learn from one another and share the projects that they are working on.
Its power lies in its possibility to motivate the “culture of encounter” with the help of technology. The platform is available in English, Spanish and Italian.
