Solidarity South Sudan for empowering young women

"Solidarity with South Sudan aims to create self-sustainable educational, health and pastoral institutions and programs that will help to empower South Sudanese people to build a just and peaceful society."

Sr. Jane Rose Onzia, Sacred Heart Sister 

Solidarity with South Sudan is a new model of ministry and collaboration among women and men religious and the laity in serving the poor.
As initiative of the UISG and USG, its mission is to develop leaders, and to build the capacity of people in South Sudan to be teachers, health care professionals, sustainable farmers, and diocesan pastoral agents.

"As Solidarity with South Sudan seeks to expand its women and girls' empowerment program across the seven Catholic dioceses of South Sudan, we are energized by the enthusiasm of the young girls in the program. The determination of these girls to be key players in their own socioeconomic liberation ignites Solidarity with Sudan's commitment to increased collaboration with the Diocese of Tombura-Yambio, for the benefit of the young women."
