Speakers will explore local realities and how faith and practical spirituality can be used as tools to provide support to communities, especially for those who are marginalised, vulnerable and facing disadvantage.

“This webinar will offer another lens to address the issues that matter to young women worldwide, who are not just leaders of the future but the voice of now,” said Rev. Nicole Ashwood, WCC program executive for Just Community of Women and Men.

The one-hour discussion will be moderated by Joy Eva Bohol, WCC program executive for Youth Engagement.
