During the meeting, the participants received online greetings from Sr. Maria Ausilia De Siena, General Councilor for Social Communications, and Sr. Cecilia Camacho, President of CINAB.
In the reflection on the educational communication path of the Conference there were also some online formative interventions: Sr. Susana Li, of Our Lady of the Angels Province (CAR) made a contribution on “Our FMA mission (communication) in the contemporary world” and Sr. Maria Helena Moreira, Councilor for Social Communication from 2015 to 2022, of Mother Mazzarello Province (BMM) presented the “Guidelines on the presence of the FMA in social networks.”
The days were enriched by the presence of Sr. Edith Franco, Provincial of CBC who in the Goodnight, shared the key words to transform communication into a source that generates life. The event was also attended by Andres Camilo Barrios, the Communicator who will hold a workshop on “Photography and digital marketing”.
In a climate of fraternity and synodality, which favors the spontaneity of the interventions, the participants continue in the process of drawing up the CINAB 2022-2027 Communication Plan, to create more and more educational-communicative environments that generate life.
