How will Tearfund use Church and Community Mobilisation (CCM) to see 250,000 churches transforming their communities?

In the final episode of season three of the Faith in Development podcast, our hosts Pete Dawson and Bethany Sikes look to the future of CCT. They are joined by Tearfund’s Regional Influencing Lead for Southern and East Africa, Anne Mumbi, and Tearfund’s Global CCM Officer, Grace Kariuki, to find out more about Tearfund’s big ambition to see 250,000 churches active as transformation centres in their communities by 2030 through Church and Community Mobilisation (CCM).

What if we could quantify the impact of Church and Community Transformation and put a monetary value on it?

In this episode of season 3 of the Faith in Development podcast, hosts Bethany Sikes and Pete Dawson are joined by Lizzie Trotter, head of social impact and wellbeing at State of Life. They discuss the CCT impact study, look at what social value is, and explain how £1 of investment by Tearfund helps communities to invest £7 of their own resources, resulting in up to £211 of measurable transformation in people’s lives.

What happens when churches go beyond what they can do themselves by engaging with local and national government?

In this episode of season 3 of the Faith in Development podcast, our hosts Pete Dawson and Bethany Sikes are joined by Chalwe Nyirenda, Tearfund’s CCT Advocacy Advisor as they discuss what it looks like when communities taking part in Church and Community Transformation start advocating for their needs and draw on the government as a resource.
