Churches and church-related institutions with their pension funds and capital invest billions of dollars worldwide. How can these investments become more consistent with the Christian values and have positive impact on development? And how can Christian development agencies with their expertise and partners match the needs of Christian investors? This conference aims at increasing trust between Christian (institutional) investors and Christian development agencies, share experiences of cooperation and develop strategies for future joint projects. The conference also contributes to the newly built FaithInvest Alliance.
