Ignatian Youth Networks Initiating Generational Outcomes
A youth organization springing forth from and the service of the church, specifically situated in Africa, IYNIGO aspires to be an assembly of dynamic young people who “give priority to actions which generate new processes in the society and engage other persons and groups who can develop them to a point where they bear fruit in significant historical events.”
TIME > SPACE
Giving priority to time means being concerned about initiating processes rather than possessing spaces.”
IYNIGO:
TIME IS GREATER THAN SPACE!
Giving priority to time means being concerned about initiating processes rather than possessing spaces. Time governs spaces, illumines them and makes them links in a constant expanding chain, with no possibility of return. What we need then, is to give priority to actions which generate new processes in society and engage other persons and groups who can develop them to the point where they bear fruit in significant historical events. Without anxiety, but with clear convictions and tenacity.
-Pope Francis, Evangelii Gaudium, nos. 222-223

” IYNIGO represents the commitment of the Arrupe Jesuit Institute (AJI) to achieve holistic social transformation by mobilizing young people between the ages of 18 to 35 in order to build networks of youth imbued with Ignatian spirituality who will be initiators of processes that yield outcomes of generational significance. This purpose will be attained through training young people in leadership and entrepreneurship assisting them in mentorship and opportunities, realizing all of this through effective networking”
