Help for women affected by violence in Asia
PGI, Protestant Church Federation in Indonesia
The role of the Protestant Church Federation in Indonesia (PGI) is more important than in other countries because it represents a religious minority in a Muslim country with high social control. As a representative body of Protestants, the PGI has an important consultative role with the government in Indonesia. The CIP is keen to actively shape and advance interfaith dialogue and has already initiated several projects on interfaith peacebuilding.
Mission 21 supports interfaith cooperation for peace and justice, as well as the new program to support female migrant workers and prevent human trafficking. As an umbrella organization of more than 80 Protestant churches, the PGI is also involved in anti-corruption and good governance with the support of Mission 21. Mission 21 has a long relationship with the PGI, which is very well networked nationally and internationally.
