This spirit has inspired the inception of Uniservitate, the UNESCO call for the \u201ceducation of the future\u201d since 2020, and the Church\u2019s vision for its educational institutions. Furthermore, UNESCO and the Church agreed that, given the current challenges facing our planet and societies, education focused solely on individual success is no longer enough. New generations need to learn to solve complex problems alongside those with different perspectives.<\/div>\n<div>\t<div id=\"gap-1914874194\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1914874194 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div>Service-learning provides students with direct contact with reality \u2014something virtual consultation cannot replicate\u2014 enabling them to ground information in real-life situations and challenging them to reflect on their own spirituality through encounters with \u201cthe other\u201d.
