This paper analyzes the great ethical lesson that Pope Francis offers to all humanity on the one hand, and it tries to identify more properly some educational positions on the other. The proposal of the author offers some possible educational commitment lines that can be translated both in a daily educational engagement, and in ideas for educational actions and specific teaching activities.
