Supporting Christians in Zimbabwe
In a desperate situation, the churches of Zimbabwe are among the few parts of civil society still functioning. The churches of Britain and Ireland are working to help the churches of Zimbabwe play their part in the restoration of stability and the development of a healthy civil society.
In order to do this effectively, CTBI International Affairs is looking at the needs and priorities of church communities in Zimbabwe. At present, this includes resourcing the churches of Britain and Ireland to play their part in capacity building with their partner church communities and encouraging links and dialogue.
