Heinrich Pesch House (HPH) is a Catholic academy in Rhine-Neckar, in Ludwigshafen, Germany. The Jesuit-run centre offers lectures, seminars, workshops and conferences.
The Heinrich Pesch Foundation was founded in 2013 to support the centre and specific programs.[1] A non-profit organization, HPH is supported by the Diocese of Speyer, the Jesuit Order and the Catholic community of Ludwigshafen and Mannheim.[2]
Heinrich Pesch was a 19th-century Jesuit whose economic theory had a major impact on Rerum Novarum, which was the first Catholic social encyclical.[3][4][5]
