We now know the difference between individual and system level responses to poverty and have a greater understanding of what affects and defines poverty, but what about the agencies and groups that work in poverty alleviation?
Charities, NGOS, not-for-profits and Social Enterprise – aren’t they all the same thing?
What does good development actually look like?
What is best practice?
How can I tell whether the groups I support are being effective or not? What can I do personally?
What is the role of outsiders in development? All these questions are explored in our next course.
- Course Prerequisites
God calls us to care for the poor, the marginalised, the widow and the orphan, but how?
Sometimes in our eagerness to heed that call, we give our time or money to the first opportunity we hear about. But what does it mean to be wise stewards of our resources?
How can we tell whether the causes we are supporting have good motivations, use ethical approaches and are actually making positive change?
What does it mean to be “beyond reproach” when serving and loving others?
How can we partner with local Christians in a way which honours them and helps them live out their faith?
All these questions and more will be explored in these sessions.
