Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation is a group composed of JPIC persons who have their congregations in Rome. Through working groups (Ecology, Anti-trafficking, Africa JPIC formation, Economic Justice, Catholic Social Teaching, etc) members develop and distribute JPIC resource materials in several languages. Seminars and Forums are offered as opportunities for ongoing formation. Members also network with other organizations that have similar objectives. Work is done in collaboration with the Pontifical Council for “Justice and Peace”, Caritas International, SEDOS, the Antenna AFRICA-EUROPE FAITH AND JUSTICE NETWORK, “Solidarity with South Sudan”, and the UN committee for the Interreligious Decade for Peace. http://www.jpicformation.org. |
