Works that integrate Misión Jesuita
Our Identity
COMMITTED TO THE GOALS OF SOLIDARITY AND JUSTICE
Our work is characterized by an option for justice and a willingness to serve, accompany and defend the most vulnerable individuals and groups. Moreover, we work to build a culture of solidarity, in which committed citizens denounce injustices and transform the structures that create poverty and exclusion.
UPLIFTED BY THE SOCIETY OF JESUS
Jesuit missionaries and collaborators in the Mission conceive service as closeness and accompaniment. Therefore, we do not see our social-environmental commitment as a mere rendering of services or assistance, but rather as a way of walking together with the people while promoting social change.
NETWORKING AS A WAY OF DOING THINGS
We work alongside other organizations well implanted in the areas where we work. Our collaborating networks enjoy high prestige on account of their dedication, experience and concern for the most vulnerable population groups. We are inspired by the importance of more extensive and better collaboration.
Our Policies
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION POLICY
We share a firm commitment to protect and preserve nature, and a vision of climate change. We are conscious that every individual or collective act has consequences, for better or for worse, because all things are connected in our planet: our common home.
GENDER EQUALITY POLICY
Equality between men and women is a matter of human rights and a condition for social justice, a fundamental requirement for achieving development and peace. This document reflects our commitment to a horizon of justice and equity.
POLICY OF PROTECTION OF THE CHILDREN AND THE ELDERLY
Our work with people afflicted by poverty or injustice, our values and our behavior reflect our identity. We strive for participation, dialogue and transparency, because that is the way we are and want to be.
Our People
We function as a single body, united by a set of values inspired by Ignatian spiritualty. We rely on exceptional individuals who are willing to apply their talents to dealing with the complex and important challenges involved in “the construction of a more just and solidary country.”
