Social Justice week takes place on 7 – 13 September 2025.
As we enter the final year of our peace-focused journey, Social Justice Week 2025 invites everyone to explore practical ways to build peace together — inspired by faith, action, and community.
This year’s theme is ‘Let’s build peace together! / Kōwhiria te murunga hara, kia mōhio ki te rangimārie.’
The bishops have released their annual Social Justice Statement, centered on the theme “Let’s Build Peace Together.” They emphasise that building peace is not just a goal, but a vocation for every Christian.
