The Sustainable Communities Programme was initiated in 2012 as the result of a strategic planning process in IofC after the London riots in 2011. Its intention was to address the moral and spiritual challenges facing communities and take action to develop and mobilise communities to tackle critical issues.
Since then, the programme has grown with a diverse and active increase of network members and partners who are engaged in different fields: migration, refugees and asylum, intergenerational dialogue training, police, prison and gang and knife crime, trust building between local government and grassroots, interfaith dialogue, women leadership and economic training, and health and wellbeing,
Our team consists of local and international grassroots, faith leaders, local politicians, ordinary people, students, researchers, police, decision makers and civil society organisations who are committed to respond to IofC’s local and global tasks.
Together we inspire, equip and empower people towards a common vision for a better and more just world.
