Bishop Enosa added that apart from sharing ideas and establish that spirit of working together for Church leaders the training will help them with Peace building skills on how they will contribute in bringing peace to Western Equatoria and South Sudan at large.
“To work for sustainable peace needs skills of analyzing conflict and how to address it peacefully,” he said.
Bishop Eduardo Hiiboro Kusala of the Catholic Diocese of Tombura Yambio thanked the Inter-Church Committee for organizing the workshop. He said that it is time for action to move forward.
Pia Philip Michael, Gbudue Education Minister asked the participants to speak against gender -based violence and other malpractices. He believed that the social ills are letting the communities behind.
