O fficers of the Asian Catholic Communicators Inc. (ACCI) met in CFA 08 May to discuss plans to “popularize” the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church.  The plan would make the Church’s social teachings – including those on social justice, governance, private property, stewardship, environmental protection, poverty alleviation and interfaith dialog – more easily understandable by lay people.  The project would probably be launched with the production of a video that describes an overview of the Compendium.

The meeting was chaired by Fr. Salvatore Putzu, SDB, of Word and Life Publications.  “Fr. Sal” is current ACCI head.  Also among those present were representatives of Jesuit Communications, St. Paul Fathers, Institute of Spirituality in Asia, and host Communication Foundation for Asia.
