A Continental Workshop of Comboni Missionaries working with Pastoralist peoples in East Africa, was held in Juba (S. Sudan) from the 6th to the 9th of May 2014. The common goal of the Workshop was to elaborate a common vision and approach to the evangelisation of pastoralist peoples in East Africa.

The workshop was facilitated by Bro. Alberto Parise who used the method of the ‘pastoral cycle’; hence, experiences and insights of the work done among Pastoralist peoples were shared; patterns from experiences identified; a shared method and approach in the ministry to the pastoralists suggested, and, eventually, possible guidelines for the formation of confrères who would work among the pastoralists indicated.

The workshop reached some practical proposals for confreres in basic formation and for ongoing formation of confreres working with Pastoral peoples.
