Why choose Jesuit Centre for Safeguarding in Africa?

To generate robust support and leadership by the Church in upholding the values of sanctity of human life and dignity for children and vulnerable adults in Africa and in the universal church.

This will involve setting up of the CoP structure as an online engagement platform for safeguarding personnel, practitioners, religious and lay scholars in the church. Recruitment and enrolment of members will precede the engagement which will be around identified themes such as the relationship between culture and safeguarding, leadership and community engagement among others. It is envisaged that this would contribute to the creation of an effective movement with a shared culture and mindset as a means of modelling that mindset in the wider church.
