Social media, fake news, artificial intelligence, individualism, threaten the identity of communicators and there is a need to spread a culture and a space for dialogue, listening, meeting. Communication needs reciprocity even among communicators to generate thought, community, fraternity.

Communication is no longer just a matter for professionals but for everyone: educators, parents, artists, religious who can make their contribution to inclusion and solidarity, to sharing cultural riches, achievements and sufferings of peoples. But how can we communicate the Gospel and its values of proximity and closeness in our time? The question posed by the Synod of the Catholic Church that ended in October, urges today sensitivity, skills and new practices.

Insights and sharing of ongoing experiences will alternate in the webinar/lab “Communication to build community” that will be held on Synodal Comunication Network Channel on Wednesday, February 12, 2025 at 6 pm (Italian time).
