In Syria, more than 60% of the population face food insecurity, and 7.4 million people are internally displaced. Extreme poverty is driving people and communities into crisis. Despite these challenges, the people of Aleppo, Syria, are reshaping their future.

Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) affects 1 in 3 women globally. Tearfund's SGBV lead breaks down the misconceptions in our 16 Days of Activism Q&A.

The local church's influence is the single most powerful tool for challenging harmful norms. Change starts when faith leaders are equipped.

Our faith in Jesus causes us to respond to the climate crisis for two reasons. Firstly, because he calls us to care for creation, and secondly, because he models how we should seek justice.
