Gravissimum educationis

The Catholic Church's document Gravissimum educationis is the Second Vatican Council's Declaration on Christian Education. It was promulgated on 28 October 1965 by Pope Paul VI, following approval by the assembled bishops by a vote of 2,290 to 35. The declaration is concerned with "education" in itself, including adult education, and specifically with "Christian education".

To revitalize this teaching, updating it to today's challenges, Pope Francis created the Gravissimum Educationis Foundation – Culture for Education in 2015.
