Abstract
Reading Laudate Deum in the Lenses of Inclusivity is not just an academic exercise. It is a commitment to walk with Pope Francis’ call to act immediately to address the issues of climate change and global environmental crisis. The paper aims to present the key concepts of his apostolic exhortation that advance the theme of inclusivity. It shall include a trace in the development of his concepts of inclusivity in his writings and programs, identify them in the text itself of Laudate Deum, and examine them within the framework of intersectionality. Pope Francis has been highly vocal about the technocratic paradigm that dominates and causes havoc to the harmony that the people of this world can enjoy. He urges world leaders to do something since his encyclical is at the best time to influence the United Nations Climate Summit (COP28). But beyond the rhetoric are issues that need to be responded to. The call is for everyone regardless of background and we are all united to work together to take care of our earth, our home.
