There is a great need and demand for clear and contextual data and information on climate change and its relation to environmental management, biodiversity, agriculture, energy, health and food security from a Christian (Stewardship) perspective. Locally produced information is often scarce, while information produced outside the local radius may be inappropriate or too general for recipients to connect with it and derive valuable meaning. As a dedicated creative information hub, we exist to design, develop, generate and strategically distribute a wide spectrum of information services relative to creation stewardship.
Its critical for the collective Christian community to find a platform through which their voices can be heard, their vulnerabilities known, and their actions made inclusive. We promote processes and actions that are geared towards limiting human-induced climate change to ecologically sustainable levels. Our processes translate climate education into to real action. We are more excited about the possibilities we have to inspire thousands of Christians to act out what they learn. Education informs through knowledge but campaigns drive action. It is the combination of the two that paints a complete picture for us.
We are determined to provide a foundation for facilitating the Churches’ input in the framing of stewardship premised climate and environmental policies. The collective Church has a moral responsibility to assess, diagnose, and support national efforts to achieve low-carbon growth and influencing policies accounts for a huge part of that responsibility.The Church has a voice, a strong and reputable one for that matter, and our heart is for that voice to be collectively harnessed towards defending the integrity of creation.
At Cifa, our heart is to contribute towards low carbon and sustainable futures through education and action. This is why we carefully collect and capture relevant information, analyzing, realigning and repackaging it into tailored educational products targeted at varying people groups constituted within the greater Christian faith constituency. Its always key to reach the right people in the right way, with the ideal message that they can understand.
