Abstract

Faith-based service providers play a significant role in efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and promote integral human development, understood as the development of each man and the whole man. Faith also affects people’s behaviors as it relates to investments in human development. Yet the role of faith and faith-based service providers remains insufficiently acknowledged in policy discussions. Similarly, policy discussions and the lessons learned by the international community on what works to achieve the SDGs and promote human development do not sufficiently reach faith-based organizations and faith networks. This report is the first in a new series on integral human development. Its aim is to measure the contributions of faith-based organizations to integral human development with a focus on education, healthcare, and social protection.
