MISSION
HOW
AIM
Our Mission is the advancement of the Christian religion by, but not limited to, promoting and encouraging the Christian values of reconciliation and peace, truth telling and the fundamental belief in human rights. In particular, but not exclusively, in furtherance of this the IPT will provide grants to organisations and individuals who seek to achieve these aims.
We support training programmes, facilitated dialogues and conferences that promote peace, understanding of human rights or work towards reconciliation and conflict resolution. See below, or read our grant making policy for more detail.
We aim to encourage new changemakers to fulfil their vision for projects which bring about change in themselves and their communities. We hope to attract more donations, increase the visibility of our grant programmes, and showcase the impact of the projects we support.
Facilitated Dialogues
Human Rights
Conversations which help to bridge gaps or quell conflict between different communities.
Promoting the Human Rights as set out by the United Nations.
Promoting Peace
Conflict resolution
Work that helps to diffuse tensions and promote other solutions than conflict.
Projects that seek to resolve conflict that has already taken place.
WHERE WE SUPPORT
We have supported projects all over the world. Ukraine, India, Burundi, Kenya, UK, France, USA, Indonesia and Switzerland to name a few. We hope to support more projects throughout more countries in the future.
