- Oct 212:00 AMGlobal Day of ActionAs part of the annual St. Francis Week celebration, Global Day of Action, an initiative of Notre Dame Global, will take place on Wednesday, October 2. To celebrate the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, members and friends of the Notre Dame community around the world will be responding to Laudato Si's call to care for our common home with local action. The theme for this year’s Global Day of Action focuses on conscious consumption. We are encouraging everyone to consider how we can reduce waste in our everyday lives and be more thoughtful about how we consume, whether that means reducing energy consumption, reusing and repurposing materials and relying less on single-use items, consuming less resource-intensive foods, purchasing and consuming fewer materials, or donating unwanted goods and food. Staff and students at our global locations are invited to host an event such as an environmental service project, hosting a plant-forward feast, a litter clean-up, a seminar, a group reflection, or a prayer service to gather people in our local community together to act on and reflect on our role in caring for our common home. Even if you can't participate on Wednesday, October 2, we encourage the Notre Dame family to participate any day during St. Francis Week 2024 (September 30 - October 4.) Are you hosting a Global Day of Action event and want us to share it? Submit your event here!
