| Training and workshops for catechists are a fundamental aspect of Solidarity with South Sudan’s Pastoral Programme, representing a strategic investment in the future of local communities. In a country where geographical distances and logistical challenges make it difficult for the Church to maintain a widespread presence, the catechist emerges as an essential figure of reference, capable of bridging the gap between faith and daily life even in the most remote areas.
The training offered is not limited to doctrinal content, but embraces a holistic view of the person and their social role. Through these sessions, participants acquire fundamental tools for conflict resolution and the promotion of peace, becoming true agents of reconciliation in areas often marked by deep-seated tensions. The programme emphasises leadership development, the ability to listen, and healing from trauma, enabling catechists to accompany families and young people with a renewed sensitivity towards human dignity.
