IMCS and ICMICA are pleased to present the 2022 issue of the Pax Romana Journal, an intercultural, international, interdisciplinary, and intergenerational review.

In 2022 the special edition of the Journal was edited by Pax Romana Jurists’ Commission (PRJC). The theme
of the Journal, “Human Rights for Peace and Justice”, was chosen in light of the concurrent relevance and
more than a century long peace and justice experiences of global catholic tertiary students.
