1946-2006: Collaboration with IYCS
At the 25th World
Congress of Pax Romana in September of 1946, in Fribourg, the International
Young Catholic (Christian) Students (IYCS) was founded. Although YCS groups,
inspired by the Catholic Action methodology of the Belgium priest (later Cardinal)
Joseph Cardijn had existed for many years, there was no formal international
coordination. As a number of those groups had links with Pax Romana, the
movement invited these groups to organize a program in conjunction with the
Congress. Since then, IYCS and Pax Romana have had a close and dynamic working
relationship.
