Post War
After the War, the full time work of the
secretariat moved back to Fribourg and Pax Romana again brought together
students from warring countries together based in the common identity of being
a Catholic student. In this post war period, Pax Romana focused on:
- strengthening
and developing new national Catholic student federations, in Latin
America, Africa and Asia,
- setting
up a series of important services for students (including scholarship
funds for African and Asian students to attend universities in Europe),
- helping
in the resettling and relief efforts of refuges after the War,
- organizing students together in "specialized secretariats"
based in their fields of study (Medicine (1932), Press (1932), Law (1934),
Comparative Literature (1935), etc); and
- setting up a series of important services for students
(including scholarship funds for African and Asian students to attend
universities in Europe)
Many of these efforts would result in the
foundation of autonomous organizations and services.
