A FRESH BATCH OF EDUCATORS FOR THE IGNATIAN TEACHER PROGRAM IN RIVERVIEW AUSTRALIA

This report is written by John Gilles of St. Ignatius, Riverview Australia, one of the lead facilitators of the recently held Ignatian Teacher Program (or ITP) in Sydney, Australia. It’s the third–and last–of the workshops offered by JCAP’s IGNITE (Ignatian Initiative for Teacher Excellence) this year.

The 2017 Ignatian Teacher Program, held last November 12 to 17,  was a meeting of hearts and minds.  

Drawing together senior educators and administrators from the Asia Pacific region, delegates from Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Macau, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Philippines, China and Taiwan travelled to Sydney, Australia for two core purposes: First,  to encourage dialogue between significant educational trends, Ignatian Spirituality and Ignatian Pedagogy,; secondly, to contribute to the invigoration of Jesuit Education within the framework of the global network of Jesuit secondary educational institutions
