The International Programme

EED supports churches, Christian organisations and non-government organisations whose work promotes social justice.

It does this by means of:

• financial contributions to projects and programmes of partners,
• the secondment of qualified personnel,
• scholarships and
• consultancy services.

Our goals

• to empower those who are poor, disadvantaged and oppressed for the betterment of their own lives;
• to enable people to take part in decision-making processes;
• to strive for the protection of civil and social human rights;
• to create equal opportunities for women and men;
• to promote peace and overcome violence;
• to further the protection and nurturing of the natural environment.

Our international partners
