- What is Catholic Social Teaching?
- Why is CST essential to Creighton’s mission?
- How can faculty and staff better incorporate Catholic Social Teaching into their work?
To incorporate members of the Creighton community beyond the Omaha campus and accommodate uncertainty around COVID-19, this year’s CST Level 1 series will be offered synchronously online via Zoom.
Each session will cover one CST theme through two presentations: one from a Creighton theologian and one from a Creighton faculty or staff member with related scholarly or applied expertise. Sessions will conclude with a Q&A.
Zoom sessions will occur 12:15-1:15 p.m. CDT on the following Fridays: Aug. 28, Sept. 25, Oct. 23, Nov. 20, Jan. 29, 2021; Feb. 26, March 26, and April 23.
The series will introduce key Catholic Social Teaching themes in relation to Creighton’s Catholic, Jesuit identity:
| Love and Justice | Common Good, Solidarity, and Government |
| Preferential Option for the Poor | Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion |
| Creation Care and Climate Change | Health Care |
| Economic Justice | Peace and War |
Those who complete this series will be eligible to participate in Catholic Social Teaching Level 2 – “Living Justice: Catholic Social Teaching in Action” the following year.
