**Abstract**

The essay has as its starting point, a brief awareness of the accelerated degradation and depletion of Planet Earth and the incompetent or insensitive economies toward the scandalous increase of social inequalities and situations of *human waste* in the world. Next, come some core points of the Church's Social Teaching under Pope Francis, highlighting *integral ecology* and dialogue, as well as some relevant aspects in the debate of global ethical standards and new perceptions of the paths of spirituality. With this broad framework, the central focus of the text synthesizes a proposal for a concept of promoting justice considered coherent and operative within this context, emphasizing the relevance of *spiritual dialogues* as a transforming practice within the complexity that questions and challenges us. Even without directly addressing the concept of sustainability, by focusing on integral ecology and spiritual dialogues, the essay's main horizon is to suggest paths to sustainable societies.

**Keywords:** integral ecology, spiritual dialogues, Pope Francis, socio environmental justice
