Development and Peace - Caritas Canada
Share the Journey
This Fall, Development and Peace – Caritas Canada is launching Share the Journey – the Caritas Internationalis campaign on forced migration.
This year’s campaign joins the global Caritas Campaign launched by Pope Francis in 2017. (We are the Canadian member of the Caritas family) The Pope is Catholics to reach out to those who are forced to flee their homes due to war, persecution, poverty, and climate disruption. There are 68.5 million forced migrants in the world today. Our campaign is again calling on the federal government to raise its level of international assistance, this time to specifically do more to address the root causes of forced migration in the world.
We need your help to send as strong a message as possible to Ottawa!
