Common Ground/Common Good: Strengthening Relationships Between Faith-based Health Organizations and National Governments

Faith-based organizations provide up to 70% or more of healthcare in some countries. They often work in remote locations among neglected people without any access to healthcare. Should faith-based hospitals and health programs partner with local governments and other actors in the public sector? Will collaboration compromise witness and mission? Or can collaboration expand resources, opportunity and deepen impact of Kingdom work? This session will help us examine relationships and discover from a Kingdom perspective about the common ground/common good of working with local governments, Ministry of Health and other national organizations.
