Churches Step Up Against Violence

The churches comprise of Catholic Church, United Church, Evangelical Lutheran Church, Good News Lutheran Church, Baptist Union of PNG, Salvation Army of PNG, and the Anglican Church, Evangelical Alliance and Body of Christ.

The alliance stemmed from an education and awareness program on gender sensitizing carried out by the churches early this year, funded by NCDC.    

NCD Governor Powes Parkop commended and welcomed the alliance while he reminded church leaders that violence was not just a development nor human rights issue.
