Our Work
Canadian Jesuits International (CJI) is an apostolate of the Jesuits in Canada, which seeks to promote the justice of God’s kingdom and to find God in all cultures and religions in our world, especially among those who are most marginalized. CJI works with Jesuit and other partners rooted in the Jesuit tradition to support communities in their struggles for peace and social justice in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
