Fr Chris Boles SJ, Director of the Lauriston Jesuit Centre in Edinburgh, gave a short presentation at the recent LTS conference on Developing Global Citizens Through Religious Education. His text and slides (attached below) provide an excellent summary of the main elements of Catholic Social Teaching. This would be very helpful to teachers in ensuring that their approach to addressing this theme across various curricuar areas is clearly grounded in Church teaching.
