At Tearfund, we believe that every person is created in the image of God. This truth is fundamental to the ways in which we interact with each other and all those we serve – regardless of their background, experience or beliefs. God’s plan is for everyone to be included and valued, not pushed to the edges of society.
Our aims
- To build a culture where everyone belongs. This is rooted in our belief that every person is created in the image of God. We will make sure everyone has equal opportunities, no matter who they are or where they come from. We commit to creating an environment where all staff feel valued and accepted.
- Help everyone involved with Tearfund – staff, partners, supporters and the people we serve – develop an understanding of how they can engage with others in ways that take their individual needs and experiences into consideration.
- Pursue justice and reconciliation where discrimination has caused broken relationships. We will provide safe spaces and clear channels where issues can be discussed courageously.
God calls us to love one another. Creating an environment that is inclusive, supportive and fair for all is a crucial way that we can do this.
