FAITH PLANS

WORKING WITH FAITH GROUPS

The world's faiths are responding to the 'cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor' by developing Faith Plans for People and Planet – long-term faith commitments to use their assets, resources and influence to drive practical action to create a better world for people, nature and the climate.

The Faith Plans framework is inspired by the success of the original ARC/UNDP 2009 Faith Commitments programme which resulted in more than 60 Plans that have profoundly shaped the faiths response to environmental issues over the past decade and more.

In this latest initiative more than 80 faith communities and faith-based associations, reaching out to nearly 158 million people, have committed to develop a Faith Plan.

'I was part of the generation that made the choice – the horrendous strategic blunder – of situating ourselves outside the institutions of faith. Now we have a chance to repent of, and reform from, that error.' 
Carl Pope, executive director of the Sierra Club, speaking to the Christian Science Monitor in 2007
