The International Association of Jesuit Universities (IAJU) is committed to fostering collaboration, research, and programming among member institutions to achieve several critical priorities.
These include expanding access to quality higher education for marginalized and disadvantaged populations, promoting the development of civic and political leaders guided by Catholic Social Teaching principles, and advocating for economic and environmental justice through education and awareness efforts.
Additionally, the IAJU aims to preserve the distinct Ignatian character of its member schools by nurturing the leadership of both lay and Jesuit individuals. It also seeks to encourage interfaith dialogue, address challenges posed by secularism, and underscore the importance of faith in human and social development.
Furthermore, the association is dedicated to advancing peace and reconciliation through bridge-building programs and social justice initiatives across the wider university community.
