Tearfund’s Global Campaigns Team leads the Renew Our World campaign in the United Kingdom. The Global Campaigns Team is part of Tearfund’s Global Advocacy Team, which seeks to address the systemic challenges of poverty, inequality and living within environmental limits through a combination of movement building, campaigning, and policy research.
The Global Campaigns Team works with movement partners, activists, and churches around the world to help empower people into making positive change for justice and the climate in their communities. This can range across a variety of work, from leading public campaigns and lobbying governments, to running events that bring faith and civil society communities together to share insights and discover opportunities for further collaboration.
The Global Campaigns Team helped to launch the Renew Our World movement in 2017, as part of the Global Advocacy Team’s Restorative Economy vision for a world where all people have their basic needs met, everyone has the chance to flourish, we care for creation, and reduce inequality between rich and poor. The team also acts as a focal point for the Renew Our World national expression in the UK, operating on behalf of the movement in its work across the country.
The Global Campaigns Team hopes to continue to develop and build deeper relationships with movement partners around the world, as the various movements it's involved with continue to grow in size and influence, in spite of the many political, social, and economic challenges to this growth that are often deeply contextual to the country in which each they operate in.
