Prospectus — Catalogus 2025
The Catalogus 2025 project introduces a digital platform in collaboration with the Communio Internationalis Benedictinarum (CIB) to streamline information gathering and management. This initiative will assist with Vatican forms, directories, statistics and more, while simplifying the production of the print Catalogus. Updates on progress will be shared as work continues with the Benedictine Confederation and CIB.

This year, we’re introducing a new development as we prepare for the Catalogus 2025: collaboration with some sisters from the Communio Internationalis Benedictinarum (CIB)! A small team is beginning to work on a digital platform to gather and manage this information more effectively for the future. In January, we’ll begin contacting the Congregations to gather the necessary information.
The platform will streamline the production of the print version of the Catalogus and provide valuable services to the Congregations, such as assistance with Vatican Annuarium forms, Congregation directories, jubilee lists, statistics and more.
We look forward to collaborating with the whole Confederation and CIB and will keep you informed as the work progresses.
