About the Council for Justice and Peace (formerly ICJSA)
The role of the Council for Justice and Peace of the Irish Episcopal Conference is to support the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference in promoting the social teaching of the Church and to advise on issues of social concern, both nationally and internationally.
Established in 2005 by the Irish Bishops' Conference, the newly formed ICJSA, as the Council was formerly known, combined the Bishops' Council for Social Welfare and the Irish Commission for Justice and Peace.
