Development Program

PWRDF is active in 22 countries, with partners drawn from Anglican churches, ecumenical organizations, and community-based groups. PWRDF supports people-centred development that improves the quality of daily life for vulnerable populations, promotes self-reliance, and addresses root causes of poverty and injustice. Our work is bound together in three strategic themes: Weaving a Culture of Peace with Justice, Building a Moral Economy and Accompanying Communities in Crisis.
