The Living Planet Monitor examines faith communities' engagement in sustainable food systems, land stewardship, biodiversity conservation, and water justice. By tracking indicators such as food security, climate resilience, and land use, it serves as a tool to inform, inspire, and connect faith actors committed to ecological justice. The first volume focuses on southern and eastern Africa, with future editions covering northern, central, and western Africa in October 2025, and Asia in early 2026.

The webinar will feature Dinesh Suna, WCC programme executive for Land, Water, and Food and coordinator of the WCC Ecumenical Water Network, presenting the monitor's findings. Participants will then engage in interactive breakout groups for developing faith-based climate initiatives. Athena Peralta, director of the WCC Commission on Climate Justice and Sustainable Development, will introduce the Ecumenical Decade of Climate Justice Action—launched at WCC's highest governing body meeting in South Africa to mobilise churches globally in response to the climate emergency.

This event is part of EU-CORD's Faith, Climate, and Environment conversation series, creating spaces for shared learning, connection, and action among EU-CORD members and partners exploring environmental issues through the lens of faith.

Register for the webinar to explore how faith communities can use their unique position to address the climate emergency, strengthen food security and water access, and conserve biodiversity. Participants will help shape initiatives that support the WCC's commitment to climate justice action.
