JRS France, ACAT and the United Protestant Church of France, joined forces for a campaign entitled "Accueil de l'étranger" (“Welcoming the foreigner”). Launched at the end of 2016, the campaign is a response to the disturbing rise in hate speechc and rejection of the other.
Its objective is to provide information and encourage a reflection on both current and past migratory realities, as well as our legal and moral responsibilities towards those whom we call ‘foreigners’, ‘migrants’ or ‘refugees’. The campaign is also an invitation to each and every one of us to mobilize ourselves in favour of reception, engage our political leaders on the matter and resist the temptation of being self-centered.
The United Protestant Church of France (EPUF) and the ACAT (Action of Christians for the Abolition of Torture) are launching a joint campaign to attract the locally elected represenatives’ attention and raise awareness among local communities about being ready to welcome those who knock at their door. The idea is to resist the populist rhetoric on foreigners.
