Each year, Franciscans International produces several publications
ranging from our international Newsletter to detailed reports of
UN meetings and conferences. They are available to download online
in English and additional languages (as specified below).
Franciscans International has published World Poverty – Franciscan Reflections - a collection of essays and stories on the impact of global poverty. For 25 years, Franciscans International, an NGO with General Consultative Status at the United Nations, has been advocating on behalf of the world’s poor and vulnerable. Authored by experts at international human rights organisations, as well as Franciscans working at the grassroots worldwide, this unique anthology evaluates both policy and praxis. The book’s fresh perspectives on development, human migration, and the environment make it a pragmatic foundation from which to address poverty. World Poverty – Franciscan Reflections is a clarion call to the global community to change the structures that create, maintain and exploit poverty.
The official newsletter of Franciscans International. Franciscans International's latest publication, Pax et Bonum, aims to bring stories from the grassroots and our work at the UN to our readers in nine languages. Pax et Bonum will be published three times a year.
