Scholas

Global community connecting students, universities, and meaningful experiences

Scholas Occurrentes is the global educational movement created by Pope Francis to bring together young people from different cultures and religions in order to respond—through diverse educational experiences—to today’s crisis of meaning.

You can be part of this community as a student, teacher, family, government, company, or foundation that promotes the Culture of Encounter.
The Scholas app invites you to join this global community.

From your phone, you can learn about our educational experiences around the world, discover inspiring stories, take part in encounters, and very soon — sign up for activities and programs in your own country!

What you’ll find:
● Innovative experiences combining art, sport, and technology.

● Real stories from young people and teachers transforming their communities.

● Access to educational resources and exclusive multimedia content.

● Opportunities to volunteer in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Europe, and the United States.

● Information on new university exchange programs and internships in your areas of interest.

● Special benefits for postgraduate studies in different parts of the world.

● And you’ll also be able to follow the latest news from Scholas, upcoming events, and take part in seminars, congresses, and programs.

A new way of learning
Scholas proposes an education that starts from life itself and helps you discover the art of listening, creating, and celebrating — whether through a surfboard, a football field, a paintbrush, or a mural. It also helps you realize that the other is not an enemy, but someone who helps you discover who you are and what you are here for.
