Introduction
JESC is part of Jesuits for Climate Justice, a worldwide initiative uniting Jesuit institutions and partners in advocacy for a just and sustainable future. Together with EcoJesuit and our global network, we are working in the lead-up to COP30, the UN climate summit taking place this November in Belém, Brazil. COP30 will be a decisive moment for international leaders to move from words to action. The climate crisis is not only an environmental challenge, it is a crucial matter of justice, especially for vulnerable communities and for future generations.

Policy Brief
The Policy Brief is our roadmap for what Jesuit institutions and faithful voices expect from COP30. It presents four key calls that intersect ecology, justice, and global solidarity. Available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French.
Religious Life for Climate Justice
Through the Religious Life for Climate Justice campaign, you can send a letter directly to your government urging stronger Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and to call for a just transition. Make your voice heard!
Letters to the Earth
The Letters to the Earth Initiative invites young people worldwide to raise their voices for ecological justice. Discover how youngsters across Jesuit schools and communities are raising their voices for climate justice ahead of COP30. Explore resources, toolkits, and ways to participate below.
Faith & Ecology Podcast
The Faith & Ecology Podcast offers a space for dialogue at the intersection of spirituality, ethics, and ecological responsibility. Each episode brings perspectives from different voices in faith and science, exploring how communities can respond to today’s ecological challenges.
COP Prayer Guide
Accompany COP30 with the force of prayer! An international group of Jesuits, lay collaborators, students, and members of the Global Ignatian Advocacy Network gathered to write a Prayer Guide with spiritual reflections and ilustrations for the weeks leading up to COP30 and for the negotiation days.
