Kristina Patring, expert advisor at the SMC – Faith in Development, has been elected as a delegate to the newly formed advisory council on Human Rights, an advisory body to the Swedish National Institute for Human Rights. She is one of 20 Swedish human rights experts who have been elected to the advisory council.
On the last day of May, SMC submitted the final report for humanitarian aid to Sida. In total, 2.2 million people in 17 countries have received humanitarian assistance between 2017 and 2022.
How should faith-based organizations relate to a renegotiated social contract? Does the annual meeting need to confirm motions that have already been addressed? These were some burning questions discussed last week when SMR’s network gathered for a day focused on the annual meeting.

Our Work
With special knowledge of religious freedom and the role of religion in society, we arrange events and workshops to learn from each other’s differences and advocate for a better world. We also distribute funds from Sida to several of our member organisations’ development cooperation work with local partners in over 50 countries.
Our Network
Our network began to grow at the Ecumenical Mission Conference in Edinburgh back in 1912. The world has changed since then but our focus on holistic mission gives us a platform to cooperate with a wide range of churches and organisations in our global civil society.
There are no more events avaiable right now, try again at a later time.
Our member organisations and churches represent an ecumenical breadth of Christian traditions in Swedish civil society. Together we change the world.
