CONVERSATIONS ON FORMATION. Online ongoing formation in English

The Sector on Religious Life, Formation and Vocation Ministry is organizing for the Academic Year 2021-2022 a series of CONVERSATIONS ON FORMATION in English every last Tuesday of the month using the Zoom platform. The first one is scheduled for July 27, 2021.
The initiative was provoked by the context of the continuing pandemic. Many courses of ongoing formation for vocation animators and formators in circumscriptions did not push through due to the restrictions to gatherings and travels. Some English-speaking circumscriptions have requested such online conferences.
The ten monthly Zoom meetings intend to be a forum to discuss matters concerning vocation promotion and formation. It is open to both formators and religious in initial formation. It is called Conversations because they are not magisterial lessons but venues for exchanges of ideas and sharing of experiences and practices (not necessarily the “best practices” but “good practices”) among Rogationists engaged in formation, from which one can learn and grow as formators and religious.
Each conversation runs for two hours, with a break in the middle. The first part is a presentation on a particular topic which serves as stimuli for the second part which is dedicated to the open forum. The approach of the presentations is “pedagogical”, that is, to elaborate on the “how”, rather than on the “what”. 
Due to time zone differences, the conversations are recorded and will be made available for later viewing.
