The world of education is showing immense solidarity with the Ukrainian tragedy of thousands of young people forced to leave their country and consequently their education. Many primary and higher education institutions have already made scholarships available to support the further education of Ukrainian children. The network of educational institutions promoted by the Legionaries of Christ Congregation also wants to play its part in giving solidarity to young people in difficulty.

"Peace is possible, peace is necessary, peace is everyone's primary responsibility!"

(Pope Francis)
