This special episode of Walk Talk Listen explores the vital intersection of faith, gender justice, and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Maurice is joined by three inspiring guests behind the new report 30 Years On: Faith in the ICPD Programme of Action:
  • Rev. Dr. Elaine Neuenfeldt, Global Gender Justice Programme Manager at ACT Alliance and a theologian with deep expertise in feminist theology, faith-based advocacy, and inclusive organizational change.
  • Dr. Paul Z. Mmbando, Medical Doctor and Director of Health and Diakonia Programs at the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania (ELCT), with regional and global leadership in SRHR and public health.
  • Dr. Nora Khalaf-Elledge, a gender expert and religious feminist with a PhD in Gender, Religion and Development, currently chairing the Gender-Based Violence and Faith Working Group at the Sexual Violence Research Initiative (SVRI).
Together, they reflect on how faith actors across diverse traditions have consistently shown up for justice over the past 30 years, advocating for SRHR, countering backlash, and embodying love through action. Themes explored include:
  • The unique role of faith actors in community-rooted SRHR efforts
  • Multi-faith collaboration in policy and advocacy
  • Faith, ethics, and feminist theological frameworks for gender justice
  • What gives each guest hope—and what “duckie” they’ve had to put down to grow
Listen in for a deeply moving and timely conversation on faith and justice. Stay tuned for the report release—coming soon via ACT Alliance and JLI.   Listener Engagement:
