A collection of statements, tools and initiatives related Aqua fons vitae from the Holy See ante the Catholic Church

Following the publication of the document Aqua fons vitae last March, the Dicastery for the Service of Integral Human Development is pleased to present a collection of texts from the Magisterium, interventions by the diplomacy of the Holy See and other pronouncements by representatives and bodies of the Catholic Church, as well as manuals, campaigns and various tools all related to water. This collection was announced in the document Aqua fons vitae, of which it constitutes a sort of appendix.

The material assembled (in various languages) and presented here refers to water understood in its three aspects as Aqua fons vitae indicates, namely:

1) water for direct human use

2) water as a resource used in many human activities, especially agriculture and industry

3) water as surface, that is, rivers, underground aquifers, lakes, and especially oceans and seas.
