Vision

JCSA’s vision for the future is to have within Africa and Madagascar a consistent culture of protection as “a normal, habitual way of living, relating, working, in which those whom we serve, particularly children, always feel respected, safe, and loved.” The current project, together with other on-going safeguarding initiatives within the Society of Jesus have the potential to contribute to the desired societal change in the long run, due to the importance and emphasis that they have been given by the leadership of the Society of Jesus. In addition, the project will share learning with other religious congregations, orders, and the wider Church in various ways, for transformation of attitudes and development of professional safeguarding standards.
