Social Teaching refers to the body of doctrine developed by the Catholic Church that addresses social, economic, and political issues. It emphasizes the dignity of the human person, the importance of community, and the need for justice and peace. This teaching is rooted in the belief that all individuals are created in the image of God and should be treated with respect and fairness. The principles of Social Teaching guide individuals and communities in their actions and decisions. Key themes include the common good, solidarity, and the preferential option for the poor. These principles encourage people to work towards a more just society, promoting the well-being of all, especially the marginalized.
