8 years after the work began @Peterhouse_Cam via the doctorate @CGHH_York @UniOfYork funded by @wellcometrust - 'Religion in Global Health and Development' is finally published. Thanks @McGillQueensUP @JoyAgnost and many others who made this possible. Order links below 👇

[Anglican Communion @AnglicanWorld]

The Anglican Health and Community Network (AHCN) are meeting to discuss the theme "Trust, Hope and Confidence: Equipping Anglicans in Health".

It's being hosted by the Anglican Church of Hong Kong (Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui) between 13-15 October 2024.

Meeting on the third anniversary of the AHCN's launch, the network will reflect on progress made, and discuss ways to strengthen its collective mission.

In a time when communities face conflict, resource challenges, and public health crises, this meeting will serve as a space for sharing experiences, developing strategies, and building trust.

Pray for the AHCN as they discern and plan for the future.

At #UNGA, an annual gathering of Faith Leaders hosted by @UNAIDS and @PEPFAR to celebrate progress on HIV/AIDS. Data shows the program's impact, but the story of Juliana brought it beyond statistics! @CMMBTweets was alongside many other FBO groups since the program's beginning.

Spirituality and healthcare are sometimes seen as opposites or their connection dismissed entirely. However, this new book from a group of talented scholars on global health challenges that neglect, unravelling the changing debate across the last 75yrs. Well done @winiger_uzh !
