Pedro Arrupe, 1973

  14. People tend to experience poverty because of a weak set of assets and a big threat due to vulnerabilities Poverty is more than a lack of income. Poverty is a deprivation of and lack of access to essential assets In the Philippines, vulnerabilities exacerbate poverty because it deprives people of access to essential assets. It also weakens/decreases the assets of the people Poverty & Marginalization

  15. Marginalization happens when individuals cannot fully or even partially participate in various economic and social opportunities that could help them Poverty leads to marginalization and marginalization leads to greater poverty Poverty & Marginalization

  16. It cushions and protects the people from the impact of vulnerabilities, decreasing the chance of further poverty and marginalization It also provides access to essential assets such as education, health and finances Ideal structures and processes should lead people out of poverty and marginalization Social Structures & Processes

  20. BUT…

  21. Dehumanization of ourselves and dehumanization of others.  For by thus making egoism a way of life, we translate it, we objectify it, in social structures.  Starting from our individual sins of egoism, we become exploiters of others, dehumanizing them and ourselves in the process, and hardening the process into a structure of society which may rightfully be called sin objectified.  - Fr. Pedro Arrupe (1973) -

  22. Is there Hope? “How [do weescape from this vicious circle?  Clearly, the whole process has its root in egoism – in the denial of love.  But to try to live in love and justice in a world whose prevailing climate is egoism and injustice, where egoism and injustice are built into the very structures of society – is this not a suicidal, or at least a fruitless undertaking?” - Fr. Pedro Arrupe, SJ -

  23. What needs of the world or society have I identified based on my JEEP experience? How am I invited to respond to this need? What would be the possible outcomes of this response? What do you think would happen if we don’t answer the call to this invitation? Synthesis

  24. Who are we as humans and as social beings? Who are we in relation to social institutions? Who are we as Ateneans? The Challenge

  25. Live more simply No unjust profits Change unjust structures Posts of power Synthesis: What is to be done? To be just, it is not enough to refrain from injustice.  One must go further and refuse to play its game, substituting love for self-interest as the driving force of society

  26. ‘For in the last analysis, it is the oppressed who must be the principal agents of change.  The role of the privileged is to assist them; to reinforce with pressure from above the pressure exerted from below on the structures that need to be changed.’ -Fr. Pedro Arrupe, SJ -
