Fondazione Migrantes
The Migrantes Foundation is the body established by the Italian Episcopal Conference to support and assist local Churches in understanding, evangelizing, and providing pastoral care to migrants—both Italians and foreigners. It promotes attitudes and actions of fraternal welcome toward migrants within Christian communities and fosters understanding and appreciation of migrants’ identities within civil society, thus contributing to peaceful coexistence. Additionally, it advocates for the protection of individual and family rights among migrants and encourages their responsible participation as citizens.
