South Sudan Catholic Church finally decided to
distance themselves with all form of human rights abuse and also the common
Gender Based Violence in South Sudan (SGBV) and the Catholic Church said that
Gender Based Violence is wrong.
South Sudan Catholic Churches said that South Sudan
Should accept that Sexual Gender Based Violence (SGBV) exists in South Sudan
and it is our duty as South Sudanese to combat it in all aspects of live since
it has caused countless crisis in South Sudan.
The Catholic Leaders attended a training that was
conducted by the UISG or the Justice and Peace International Union Of Superior
General In south Sudan. The Catholic Faith group attended the training for five
days.
At the end of the training the Catholic Church gave
their recommendations:
1. Sexual
Gender Based Violence should and must be taught in all Catholic schools in
South Sudan and must be in the curriculum.
2. All
Catholic Children must be taught and trained on SGBV in South Sudan mostly at
grassroots level so as to restore the country dignity.
According to National Catholic Reporter “The
Catholic community bears a unique, even sacred responsibility for denouncing
the sins of violence and sexism. This responsibility is rooted in Jesus'
liberating witness and the prophetic demands of Christian discipleship. As the
people of God, we are called to the forefront of the human struggle for
freedom, a struggle epitomized in the suffering of women. In confronting
gender-based violence, our efforts must begin with an eradication of its presence
in our church itself.”
Catholic church do
not support any terms of mishaps mostly in relations to sexism in the world.
