The Justice and Peace Commission

Justice and Peace Commission, Mumbai, is a consultative body of the Archdiocese of Bombay. Its aim is to inspire and motivate the Church in Mumbai to involve itself in problems of social concern — justice, peace and development — which form a constituent part of the mission of the Church.

In its endeavour to animate the Catholic community on social justice issues, the Commission networks and collaborates with other bodies and organisations that work to uphold the dignity and rights of the human person and to promote the common good.

Justice and Peace Commission, Mumbai is registered as Centre for Peace Trust [registration no. E 21447 (Mumbai)] under The Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950.

The Commission executes its objectives through the offices of the Documentation, Research and Training Centre.
