Church has failed to address sexual violence adequately

Archbishop elect of Suva Peter Loy said the church had failed to take on the issue of sexual violence with a front-on approach.

Loy Chong made the comment when asked about the church’s view’s about the increase in acts of sexual violence.

He said preaching about the ills of sexual violence from the pulpit is not enough.

The churches need to take an aggressive approach on the elimination of this social evil.

Chong said they needed to be inclusive in their awareness programs at the grassroots level because not everyone belonged to the church.
