What is JESAM all about?

J E S A M stands for Jesuit Superiors of Africa and Madagascar. It is an interprovincial organisation at the service of Jesuits of Africa and Madagascar for the management of the African Assistancy's common houses of Jesuits in formation. There are currently three such houses, namely, Arrupe College Jesuit School of Philosophy and Humanities in Harare, Zimbabwe; Hekima College Jesuit School of Theology in Nairobi, Kenya; and Institut de Théologie de la Compagnie de Jésus, in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.

The current moderator of JESAM is Rev. Fr. Fratern Masawe, SJ. Click here for the administrative organisation of JESAM.
