Bishop Jude N. Silva, the Bishop of Badulla, recently addressed the German Bishopsโ€™ Conference, bringing attention to the struggles faced by Sri Lankaโ€™s estate plantation workers. His address was part of Germanyโ€™s Lenten Campaign, which focuses on social justice and solidarity with marginalized communities.

During his speech, Bishop Silva highlighted the challenges of low wages, poor living conditions, and the lack of essential services for plantation workers. He called for ethical trade practices and international support to improve their livelihoods, urging faith communities to stand in solidarity with these vulnerable groups.

His message was a powerful reminder of the need for justice and compassion in addressing economic and social inequalities.
