The Caritas Vision: A Civilization of Love
Caritas is a global movement working in solidarity for a fairer world, inspired by the example of Christian faith and Catholic Social Teaching. Caritas challenges cultural, local, national and international governance structures that undermine the ability of communities to live sustainable and just lives. It is unacceptable that millions of people are suffering through dehumanizing poverty and social injustice – and we want change. The 165 Caritas members worldwide believe they can do more to combat the causes of poverty and injustice by combining their resources.
