Infogram of the 2023-2024 budget

The area of management of resources is already working and finalising the work plan to address all the challenges of the new academic year 2023-2024 in terms of economic resources. The framework is the action plan approved by the Itaka-Escolapios Board of Trustees at its last meeting at the end of June, which approved the budget for the financial year 2023-2024. In addition to all the information that is permanently updated in the Transparency and Good Governance section of the website, an infogram has been prepared summarising the main aspects of a budget that reaches 8.1 million euros, with the responsibility and challenges, but also the opportunities, that this entails.

This infogram is currently available in English and Spanish for all the demarcations and people interested in knowing the main aspects of the budget.



The general resource management team meets with the demarcations

The general management team of Itaka-Escolapios came up a few months ago with its objectives for the 2021-2027 period, that are in line with the objectives of the Strategic Plan of Itaka-Escolapios network for a six-year term. The team has set the following challenges for itself: to advance in the networking with all teams of the demarcations of the Itaka-Escolapios network; generate economic information in a networking model; to promote the concept of integral sustainability, not only an economic one; to contribute to the growth of the Piarist subject, paying special attention to the fraternity; and promoting the use of a transforming economy.

In line with these major objectives, the team which is currently made up of 8 people from 5 demarcations (Brazil-Bolivia, West Africa, Central Africa, Emmaus and Bethany, as well as the network managers), is currently holding meetings with all demarcations to disclose economic information from the network and start working on the budgets for the next 2022-2023 financial year. For now, it has already met with the Bolivian mission team and with the management team of Itaka-Escolapios Venezuela and will continue in the following weeks with the rest of the demarcations.

This is an amazing opportunity to share the situation and challenges that the Itaka-Escolapios network faces with the people that are responsible for the network in each place, besides of unveiling the new general team of the network which is integrated of two teams that shared common subjects: the former general management and the fundraising teams.

The general team of resources management of the Itaka-Escolapios network, made up of 8 people from 5 different demarcations, held an important meeting today to make progress in the planning of the Itaka-Escolapios network in the coming years.

Firstly, the current situation of the network was reviewed after having overcome the most difficult economic times caused by the covid-19 pandemic and the challenges to mitigate its effects on the accounts of Itaka-Escolapios were defined. Secondly, progress has been made on a six-year plan for the team that will serve as a framework for the team itself and for all the demarcations participating in the network. And lastly, it has begun to think about the budget for 2022-2023, defining the process of drawing up realistic budgets adapted to the current situation.

This international team will meet again after Easter and will be in contact with all the network’s demarcations in order to make progress in the best management of the network’s resources.
