In this traditional time of fasting, prayer and almsgiving, we call on your generosity, so Development and Peace can sustain transformative work in the Global South. This year’s campaign theme is Create Hope: Reaping our Rights.
Everywhere on Earth, and especially in the Global South, impoverished populations are facing growing challenges due to climate change, land grabbing, resource theft, soil contamination and armed conflict. Rural populations are particularly affected by these upheavals, and Development and Peace — Caritas Canada supports them in defending their rights to life, land, water, biodiversity, justice, health, participation, decent livelihoods, a healthy environment and more.
