Development and Peace — Caritas Canada’s work in a nutshell
Dignity, participation, solidarity, the preferential option for the poor and integrity. These are the values at the heart of the work of Development and Peace — Caritas Canada, the official international development organization of the Catholic Church in Canada. Since 1967, we’ve been walking hand in hand with communities in the Global South to promote justice, peace and dignity.
Guided by Catholic Social Teaching, we support partner-led projects that reach over 7 million people in more than 30 countries around the world.
