Introduction

The Pontifical Pastoral Institute “Redemptor Hominis” trains and specializes students in pastoral theology: both in its fundamental themes (identity and method) and in relation to some specific areas of ecclesial activity. In particular, it prepares future teachers for teaching in seminaries and theological institutes as well as pastoral workers who are experts in the various fields of ecclesial life.

In view of a missionary renewal of the Church, the Institute pays particular attention to the themes of the Social Doctrine of the Church, the pastoral and health care; and the dialogue between theology, social and human sciences.
