This book focuses on the Philippines as a powerhouse in the Catholic and global migration landscape. It offers a wide-ranging look at the roles, dynamics, character, and trajectories of Catholic faith and practice in the age of migration through an interdisciplinary, religious, and theological approach to Filipino Catholics’ experience of migration and diaspora both at home and overseas. In so doing, the book introduces the reader to the hallmarks and characteristics of a contextual model of world Christianity and global Catholicism in the twenty-first century.

Gemma Tulud Cruz is Senior Lecturer in Theology and a member of the Institute of Religion and Critical Inquiry at the Australian Catholic University. She is author of numerous publications on migration theologies including Christianity Across Borders: Theology and Contemporary Issues in Global Migration (Routledge, 2021).
