SUMMARY:Online Launch of the Catholic Joint Statement on Climate and Peace
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, 8 September 2025\, Caritas Internationalis\, CIDSE and Pax Christi International\, supported by SCIAF\, hosted a special webinar to launch a significant joint statement entitled ‘Pilgrims of Hope for a Just and Peaceful World‘. \nThe webinar was held during the Jubilee Year of Hope and the Season of Creation\, a time when the Church renewed its call to care for our common home. \nA call for Peace and Climate Justice\nAt the heart of the statement lies a simple yet urgent truth: \n“There can be no true peace without climate justice\, and no climate justice without peace.” \nThe statement warned that ecological collapse\, violent conflict\, and persistent poverty were not separate problems\, but rather ‘entangled threads of a shared global threat’. It challenged the logic of profit-driven systems\, such as those in the fossil fuel\, arms\, and financial industries\, which thrived on “instability\, inequality\, relentless extraction and oligarchic cronyism”. \nYet it also pointed to a path forward: “The moral imperative was clear but the tools were within reach.” Drawing on Catholic Social Teaching\, the statement called for solidarity\, debt justice\, an end to fossil fuel subsidies\, reduced military spending\, and inclusive decision-making that empowered vulnerable and frontline communities. \nThe launch brought together voices from across the Church and beyond. As the statement reminded us\, ‘Nonviolence\, both as a method and a style\, provided the foundation for how we confronted the challenges of our time’. Communities that resisted deforestation\, extractive industries\, and war showed that pursuing peace and caring for the environment went hand in hand. \nA step toward COP30\nThe event was also a milestone on the Catholic journey toward COP30 in Belém\, Brazil\, offering a platform to witness the moral leadership and grassroots commitment needed for global climate and peace action. \nThe statement\nBelow is the full statement in English\, French and Spanish: \n\n\nEN: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vW9i9G5NAd8rYsWlGkkQeClx3jpuYWsL/view?usp=sharing\n\n\nFR: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JpYI8-pSirjSqHSl7ZSNThKpJOffPawm/view?usp=sharing\n\n\nES: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ApDlcDKJvSlirZ1nwkrMs6tQbLsHqF3s/view?usp=sharing\n\n\nThe full recording of the event on YouTube is available here: https://youtu.be/FjtyuT5SJoo \n  \nCover photo: Ethiopian farmers.

SUMMARY:Webinar Series: Sudan Speaks
DESCRIPTION:About the Series\nSudan is facing one of the most serious humanitarian and political crises in its history\, yet the scale of this suffering has been largely overlooked by the international community. Since April 2023\, an intense conflict between rival factions has caused immense displacement\, food insecurity\, and human rights violations. Across the country\, civilians\, youth leaders\, and civil society organisations continue to advocate for a just and sustainable peace under extremely difficult circumstances. \nFollowing the World Day of Prayer for Peace in Sudan held on 11 April 2025\, Pax Christi International launched a new cycle of webinars under the banner “Sudan Speaks: Voices from a Forgotten Crisis and Hopes for Peace”. \n🔹 Webinar 1 “Sudan Speak: Introduction”\, June 28th 2025\n🔹 Webinar 2 “Women in Sudan”\, July 29th\, 2025\, 4 pm CEST \n🔹 Webinar 3: “Humanitarian Situation in Sudan”\, September 22nd\, 2025\, 4 pm CEST – Register here \nRead more about the Series
