It should be said that the JPIC is an essential aspect for our religious life and our mission as Christians. Our model as a JPIC promoter is Christ himself who came to give life abundantly (Jn 10:10). Like Jesus, we are invited to give life and hope wherever we are sent. As such, the JPIC must guide the way we live, think and do. Our responsibility as JPIC promoters is to be able to respond to the various crises related to JPIC.

In most countries, vulnerable communities, including low-income families, and small-scale farmers, are burdened by unsustainable levels of debt. This debt exacerbates poverty, limits access to basic services, and hinders economic growth. During the Jubilee Year, advocacy efforts can focus on campaigning for debt cancellation or restructuring programs to alleviate this burden and restore dignity and opportunity to local communities.
