Joint Learning Initiative on Faith & Local Communities

The Joint Learning Initiative on Faith & Local Communities is a learning network in international affairs that unites researchers and practitioners. It seeks to foster fair and equitable spaces for producing and sharing evidence on the role of religion in development and community work, with the aim of strengthening partnerships between faith-based and secular actors both locally and internationally. The organization centers its work around REAL—Research, Evidence, Accountability and Learning—a framework that guides its research, evidence generation and capacity sharing to support practical religious engagement by development actors. Based in Washington, DC, the organization operates as a small network that connects diverse international and local actors to advance religion and development knowledge through intersectoral collaboration. A notable development in its recent history is the 2021 launch of the Fair & Equitable Initiative, which seeks to counter power imbalances in knowledge production by fostering fair joint learning spaces.
