Diversity in Development: A call to reflection & action has ended
2020 was a wake-up call for many that we need to be better at embracing diversity and social equity. As Christian organizations that are “in the business of addressing disparity”, this call to reflection and action is especially important for us to heed. That is why we are centering this year’s annual forum around issues of Diversity in International Development.

Join us on May 5 & 6 as we hear from Dr. Ken Muma, Onome Ako, and Dr. Terry LeBlanc and explore questions like:  How does someone from the Majority World experience “development” work?; Who is at the decision-making table and why is it even important?; and, Are there other ways of working that we have missed because of our cultural biases?

All human beings are created in the imago Dei-in the very image of our Trinitarian God. Human dignity is the recognition that human beings possess a special value intrinsic to their humanity and as such are worthy of respect simply because they are human beings. Racism goes against this ethos and is manifested as institutional, interpersonal, and internalized. Cultivating a personal consciousness and developing an introspective gaze in global health can help develop an enriched condusive environment within any organization.
