Laudato Si' Week - Secondary

This resource helps secondary schools to celebrate Laudato Si' Week 2026!

Laudato Si’ Week is a celebration held annually from 17 to 24 May to mark the anniversary of Pope Francis’s landmark encyclical on caring for our common home. Sponsored by the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, this global celebration unites Catholics to listen and respond together to the cry of creation, rejoice in the progress we have made in bringing Laudato Si’ to life, and intensify our efforts through the Laudato Si’ Action Platform as well as other opportunities for education and action.

The Australian Catholic Bishops Conference committed to celebrating Laudato Si’ Week annually in their Social Justice Statement (2021-22): Cry of the Earth, Cry of the Poor. 2026

Theme: From Hope to Action

Laudato Si' Week 2026 invites us to move from hope to action. Hope is not passive; it is lived and shared through daily decisions, community life, prayer and concrete acts of care. This commemorative year reminds us that ecological conversion grows step by step, through restored relationships, protected creation, and strengthened communities. The next chapter of Laudato Si' begins with us, wherever we are. Source: Laudato Si Week
