Caritas
Provide a brief overview of the social injustices that exist in our local community/world.
In this day and age, many social injustices are occurring throughout the world. One of the most heinous injustices that many people know of is Asylum Seekers. In Australia, we turn away Asylum Seekers and the subject has become a very popular debate in the community. For people who don’t know what an Asylum Seeker is, it’s someone who has escaped or is fleeing their country in search of a better life filled with more opportunities.
Not only is Asylum Seekers a popular topic but racism is as well. Due to the large range of different races in Australia it makes it easier for people to make racial comments towards others and their religions. This causes children to grow up to be judgemental and continuing in the steps of their elders. As citizens growing up in Australia we are worried for our futures and the people we will grow up around. The longer we allow Racism to continue then the more our community will break apart.
Another social injustice is that villages around the world that are in war-torn countries are being mistreated, and the work that has been done is not nearly enough to bring them all up from the ground. Even when/if the villages get help to restore the village, who knows what could happen to all of their livestock and farms if another war comes along? Most people would be oblivious to all of these events if there weren’t organisations to spread the word.
Caritas helps people around the world get back on their feet with serious problems like the ones that I have talked about above and many more that a lot of people do not know about.
How does Caritas help assist to address one or more of these problems?
After a Latin word that means loving and compassion, the company that we know today that helps improve mankind is Caritas. Caritas is a humanitarian agency whom opens their arms to all who seek help; they take them under their wing and provide
