The uniqueness of this partnership is the fresh perspective it offers on critical development issues and the opportunity for faith leaders and development leaders to seek new avenues for collaboration. The book tells the story of this partnership, within the context of the Dublin meeting. It draws primarily on background materials prepared for the meeting and on discussions during the meeting itself. 2012-06-06T15:38:00Z 2012-06-06T15:38:00Z 2005 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2005/01/6255532/finding-global-balance-common-ground-between-worlds-development-faith 978-0-8213-6247-1 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/7250 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC: World Bank Publications & Research :: Publication Publications & Research :: Publication |

This book relates the latest chapter in
the story of a remarkable partnership between the worlds of
faith and development, launched in 1998 by Jim Wolfensohn
and then Archbishop of Canterbury, George Carey, when they
convened a meeting of faith and development leaders in
Lambeth Palace. The intervening years have seen the growth
and enhancement of a network of world faith and development
leaders who share a common passion to eradicate global
poverty, extend social justice and ensure global security
for all of the world's people. Periodically this group
of leaders gathers together to debate issues of common
concern and global significance. The most recent meeting
took place in Dublin, Ireland in January 2005. Debates over
two days were rich and provocative, examining issues ranging
from the recent Asian tsunami, to HIV/AIDS, gender and
youth, and the roots of conflict, all viewed through the
lens of equity. References to the ethical dimensions of
poverty alleviation and the need for a strong moral
underpinning as a foundation for equitable and sustainable
development lay at the heart of every session. The
uniqueness of this partnership is the fresh perspective it
offers on critical development issues and the opportunity
for faith leaders and development leaders to seek new
avenues for collaboration. The book tells the story of this
partnership, within the context of the Dublin meeting. It
draws primarily on background materials prepared for the
meeting and on discussions during the meeting itself. |
