See-Judge-Act
MIJARC/IMCARY follows the methodology of Cardinal Joseph Cardijn (1882-1967), founder of the Young Christian Workers Movement. It is known as revision of life, reflection/action or see judge act. This methodology not only allows a better understanding of problems but wants also to contribute to the solution of the problems by action. See-judge-act methodology enables young rural people to analize their living conditions and act either by concrete local projects, training and formation activities or policital actions.
In May 2008 the World Assembly of MIJARC/ IMCARY resolved a new action plan for the years 2008-2012. The delegates defined 6 specific objectives:
