Resource Center for Social Concerns
(RCSC)

RCSC is a program under the office of the Academic Dean, it seeks to provide a venue for engaging faith-based and secular social movements in a process of dialogue through research and documentation, conferences and actual socio-pastoral engagement.

Vision


  • To serve as a theological and pastoral resource pool for social movements, grassroots communities and faith-based organizations engaged in various forms of socially transformative praxis;
  • To facilitate a process of continuing conversation and mutual enrichment between St. Vincent School of Theology and socially engaged agents of change working in the margins of the Philippine church and society.

CARLOS ABESAMIS LECTURES
The RCSC is engaged in research projects under the auspices of the Carlos Abesamis Lecture (CAL).  The CAL which is an integral part of the RCSC, and supported by modest endowments by the family of the late Fr. Carlos Abesamis, SJ.

The CAL aims to produce
interdisciplinary theological researches which are first presented in SVST in a series of lectures
SOCIO-PASTORAL ENGAGEMENT
This program complements the on-going campus-based formation programs of SVST. Its assistance to BECs is pursued only in situations where parishes are unable to send their pastoral agents, BEC organizers and lay leaders to the campus-based formation programs of SVST. 

As of now, the project has been assisting various communities in the Diocese of Novaliches by laying all the necessary groundwork for popularizing the Catholic Social Teaching through various forms of educational and training materials.



CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING FOR THE GRASSROOTS
The projects goal is to popularize the Catholic Social Teaching and to bring it to bear on the faith-life experience of grassroots communities and social movements such as Basic Ecclesial Communities (BEC), faith-based organizations, development institutions and programs and other agencies similarly engaged in various forms of the social apostolate.
