Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

Youth play football in Kuron, a remote community in South Sudan's Eastern Equatoria State where the Catholic Church has established the Holy Trinity Peace Village.

The region has been plagued by cattle raiding and child abduction in recent years. The Catholic Church-sponsored Holy Trinity Peace Village, centered in Kuron, has worked for years to foster reconciliation and peace between the region's pastoralist communities. The program has organized friendly sports competition between youth of different villages as a way to foster mutual understanding and lessen the threat of violence.
