Vital Catholic Thought
Revitalising Catholic thought to renew credibility and integrity.
Why it matters
Humanity faces enormous environmental, social and cultural challenges. Yet, these challenges are also spiritual.
We believe the universal values carried in the Catholic intellectual tradition can and should play an important role in developing a response. This is important for the Church, but even more so for society: it’s about an urgent quest of spirit and reason.
What we do
We support partners that revitalise the tradition of Vital Catholic Thought can contribute to rebuilding the credibility of a Church that has been hit by numerous institutional crises.
We support Catholic academics and institutions who provide intellectual leadership within and outside the Church. By reinforcing healthy structures, operations and thinking, we aim to rekindle Catholic intellectual and spiritual traditions for the next generation.
Where we work
We prioritise our work with partners in many countries across the six regions in which Porticus is active.
