- Interfaith Work
FCA is a member of ACT Alliance and is committed to working in close co-operation with its ecumenical and faith-based partners and promoting interfaith co-operation in aid and advocacy work. For instance, FCA partnered with the Center for Peace and Conflict Studies (CPCS) in Cambodia to conduct a research on how to best establish and create a conducive peace environment through a grass roots analysis of conflicts and involve key community leaders to facilitate this process (interfaith dialogue). Moreover, FCA is a key actor in the development and success of the Network for Religious and Traditional Peacemakers. The Network aspires to ensure that religious and traditional actors are included in cross-track and high-level peacemaking efforts in order to make peace outcomes more sustainable.
