    Exchanges and Erasmus-style programmes, built with the institute.

  • 4

    Workshops on the Global Compact on Education and on community discernment.

Casa Kerigma is neither a holiday home nor a place of mere hospitality: it is a few days of fraternal, “Upper Room” life, to rediscover one's vocation and recover from fatigue.
