Pope Francis joined other Christian leaders and the UN on Saturday in urging the protection and advancement of women in South Sudan.

The rights of girls and women were a recurring theme on the penultimate day of the pope’s visit to South Sudan, an unprecedented joint “pilgrimage of peace” with Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby and Church of Scotland Moderator Iain Greenshields.

“Young men, you will value and honour women, never raping, never violent, never cruel, never using them as if they were there to satisfy desire,” he said. The report said, “widespread rape is being perpetrated by all armed groups across the country, often as part of military tactics for which government and military leaders are responsible”.

Francis said that if women are given opportunities “they will have the ability to change the face of South Sudan, to give it a peaceful and cohesive development!”
