Jesuit Hakimani Centre
Jesuit Hakimani Centre (JHC) is a Jesuit faith and justice centre dedicated to the study and action on issues linking the Christian faith, social justice and peacebuilding. Since 1991 JHC has been engaged in facilitating formative trainings to various groups; conducting thematic researches, policy formulations and influencing.
The name HAKIMANI is combination of Swahili words, which articulate the primary focus of our mission: HAKI (justice), IMANI (faith). As such, JHC can be described as a Catholic faith and justice centre. JHC aims at the transformation of unjust structures in society through formation, research and influencing, so as to ensure sustained change for the better of all in line with their human dignity.
This process links Christian faith founded in the Gospel values and human actions that bring fullness of life to humanity. These values are articulated in the Social Teachings of the Catholic Church that consider human dignity to be an intrinsic right to every human person, and one that has to be defended, nurtured and sustained by favourable conditions of life
