Description

Inclusion has recently become a high priority issue within the development sector, brought to the fore by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development's commitment to leave no one behind. Practices within the remit of inclusion often focus on increasing access to pre-existing groups or structures, with emphasis placed on bringing those at the margins to the centre. This book challenges such centre-focused practices from a global and practical theological perspective, based on research conducted within the Christian relief agency Tearfund. Offering inspiration for practitioners within the sector and faith-based organisations in particular, and an academic contribution to the fields of international development studies and theology, the book aims to bridge theology and practice in an accessible way. Drawing on the wisdom of a diverse team of contributors at the front line of international development, working in a variety of contexts including South Africa, Sri Lanka, Ethiopia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Ecuador, Panama, Bolivia, Lebanon and the UK, the book explores what theologies of inclusion are in operation, and what that looks like in practice. With a foreword by Ruth Valerio, and an afterword by Elaine Storkey
