Workshop on Educational Issues Confronting Us Today: Responses and Strategies
Indian Social Institute, Bengaluru in collaboration with Jesuit Education Association of South Asia (JEASA) is happy to organize a workshop on Educational Issues Confronting us today from 7th October to 10th October 2020. This workshop is intended for the benefit of Heads of Educational Institutions, Managers, Correspondents, Principals and Educationists, with special focus on those working in South India.
As people working in educational institutions, we are faced with newer and complex challenges every day. Evidence shows that the Christian educational institutions have played a stellar role in the field of education imparting quality education and promoting all round development of the students. Yet, today, we find ourselves at the receiving end. In these difficult and very challenging times we ask - Is it possible for us to maintain our distinct identity and yet contribute significantly to the building of this nation in the education sector? How can we proactively respond and remain relevant in a changing context amidst the increasing attempts to intimidate and harass us? How could we initiate collective space at South India level for mutual learning, sharing and cooperation?
The experts will guide us in this regard while they deal with significant current challenges and issues. This workshop will offer the participants a platform to share their experiences and challenges as heads/managers/administrators of educational institutions in the presence of eminent resource persons and look at various ways and strategies to respond to those challenges and issues.

Ignatius of Loyola and six of his companions founded the Society of Jesus in 1540. 
It was in that year that this group received formal approval from the pope, then Pope Paul III. At the age of 30, Inigo Lopez de Loyola, a Spanish nobleman, had his leg shattered by a cannon ball at the Battle of Pamplona 1521. During his convalescence in the castle of Loyola, Inigo was initially disappointed to find that there were only two books in the house: The Life of Christ and The Lives of the Saints. He read these books to pass the time, but gradually his mind was turned towards the things of God and away from his romantic fantasies.
Ignatius began to notice that he felt more at peace when he entertained ambitions of doing great things for God than when he thought about his romantic conquests. After he had recovered, he began to pray, fast and do penance. He also sought to find what God was asking of him.
