Sant'Egidio Nigeria is part of a global community. International formation connects Nigerian members with the wider experience of Sant'Egidio across Africa, Europe, and the world.
Members participate in international meetings, schools, exchanges, and formation moments that deepen the shared language and spirituality of the Community.
This connection helps Nigerian communities learn from other countries while also contributing their own experience of faith, service, and peacebuilding.
International formation strengthens our sense that local service belongs to a worldwide vocation: prayer, the poor, and peace.
