In Africa, Caritas focuses on building sustainable livelihoods and promoting human rights. We currently support development work in Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda, and long-term humanitarian relief in Sudan.
Sustainable livelihoods help communities become independent and self-sufficient. Skills and knowledge are used to generate income while keeping responsible stewardship of the environment and resources.
In our human rights work, we aim to preserve the human dignity of vulnerable ethnic groups, women and people affected by HIV and AIDS. The work includes protecting and securing ownership to ancestral land, and supporting education, literacy training and healthcare.
Caritas is currently consolidating its work in Africa through a new regional strategy for 2010-13, which will focus on Kenya, Tanzania and Sudan.
