The latest strategic directions of Icam are guided by the desire to take into account the current ecological issues which manifest through three major crises: an environmental crisis, a social crisis, and a crisis of meaning and hope.
The directions adopted below intend to help respond to these challenges by strengthening the following Icam capabilities:

1 - Drawing on our rich Jesuit education roots in the face of the challenges of today's world
Ignatian pedagogy values an integrative, comprehensive view on social issues. As such, Icam uses integral ecology as a guideline for our institutional decisions and dialogue with our stakeholders.
