In “Cultivating Interreligious Dialogue as an Effective Peace-Building Mechanism in the Academe” by Ramil R. Marcos, the emphasis is on fostering understanding and cooperation among different faiths within academic settings. This approach aligns with Laudato Si’s call for dialogue and collective action in addressing environmental and social issues (nos. 116–117). Marcos highlights how interreligious dialogue can lead to a deeper appreciation of our shared responsibility for the planet, mirroring Pope Francis’s vision of a world where diverse communities work together in harmony for the common good. – Editor
