The General Secretariat of the Synod of Bishops announces the opening of a website in preparation for the Fifteenth Ordinary Assembly on the theme “Young people, the faith, and vocational discernment”, which will be held in the month of October 2018. This website will be available from 14 June at http://youth.synod2018.va.

This initiative will enable the promotion of wider participation among all young people around the world, not only for receiving information on the synodal event but also for interacting and participating in the path of preparation.

In particular, please note that the aforementioned site includes an online questionnaire directly addressing young people in various languages (Italian, English, French, Spanish and Portuguese). The answers must be received by the General Secretariat by 30 November 2017. They will be of great use in the path of preparation for the synodal event and will form part of the wider-ranging consultation that this General Secretariat is carrying out at all levels among the people of God.
