The Centre for Social Concern (CfSC) is a faith-based organisation founded in 2002 as a project of the Missionaries of Africa (White Fathers).
The CfSC subscribes to the White Fathers’ objective of promoting a just society and dialogue with the people of other faiths and cultures.
The organisation applies the Gospel values and principles of the Catholic Social Teaching (CST) through publications, workshops and training programmes.
The primary target of the Centre is the Church itself and the faith communities at large.
Beyond these primary target groups, the activities of the Centre also target directly or indirectly other groups like, public policy makers, legislators, structures of social justice, relevant international bodies connected to the issues of social and economic justice and CfSC’s like-minded organisations that are critical in the field of lobbying, advocacy, dialogue justice and peace.
