Us

The EDUCAR international educational network is made up of more than 100 educational centers of the Augustinian Recollect Family in America, Europe and Asia: universities; early childhood, primary, secondary, high school schools; vocational training centers and educational initiatives of a social-solidarity nature.

Our educators

The Augustinian educator believes in man and his possibilities, considers himself a mediator and, from a joyful, human and understanding perspective, encourages dialogue that guides the student towards knowledge, towards the truth. It bases its mission on the absolute belief that love empowers

Our students

The Augustinian student loves the truth and therefore seeks it from concern and responsible freedom. Humble and receptive but open to dialogue and participatory, he begins his journey in knowing himself to direct his life with a transcendent meaning.

Our mission

EDUCAR's main objective is to promote the relationship and collaboration between the educational centers of the Augustinian Recollect family. They also seek to investigate and disseminate the principles of Augustinian pedagogy, collaborating with educational centers in teacher training.

Augustinian Pedagogy

Augustinian Pedagogy is based on an integral process (spiritual, intellectual, moral and will-based) aimed at bringing out and energizing, through the cognitive force of love, all the latent potentialities in the student.

This pedagogy is not a disinterested process with an end in itself. It is a process that entails a responsibility with life. Hence the breadth of its scope and objectives.

It acts in an intellectual dimension, when it leads to the knowledge of things first and then to the knowledge of God. It acts in a moral dimension, when it guides man towards exemplary behavior above mere words or intentions. It acts in a dimension of the will, reorienting it, since knowledge is not enough to improve, desire or love God.

Augustinian pedagogy finds the main engine for its development in love. Love drags and enhances the activity of knowing and at the same time gives meaning and energizes the search that man undertakes: approaching the love of God. Likewise, it finds its scope of action in the fact that human nature can be perfected and that the soul contains within itself infinite potentialities that it can bring to the surface.
