"Indigenous peoples have been guardians of the forest for millennia despite their worldviews and cultures not being recognized and valued. They maintain the Amazon as a true "vital organ" of the planet. It is a source of ancient wisdom and care for humanity and Earth. It is a cradle for social and ecological justice.

Easter is an invitation to each of us to “walk in newness of life.” Let us look to Jesus to show us the way. Jesus’s first Easter morning appearance was to women, even though He knew they would not be believed.Hayden Hall is an apostolate founded by a Canadian Jesuit in Darjeeling, India. The Jesuits and lay people who work there lead the way to a new life for vulnerable women. They work with poor daily wage labourers from the tea gardens, some of whom are victims of domestic violence. They help women know their rights and gain financial independence through education, skills training and income generation projects. They accompany women as they walk in newness of life.#Easter #nopoverty #equalityforall #genderequality
