About us - What we do
Our ministry is focused around five key areas:
Uniting
We work to build unity amongst members whilst at the same time acknowledge and celebrate their cultural diversity. GF facilitates and acts as a catalyst to bring clusters of national organisations together through regional associations.
Resourcing
There is much value and inspiration in hearing or reading from other traditions, cultures and methods, especially so at a global level. Regional associations coordinate the sharing of ideas in the areas of programming, training and leadership thus enabling members to have an informed and global perspective.

Profiling
Through a common brand and logo we deliver both credibility and capacity on a global scale.

This offers members the sense belonging to something larger than themselves and has a positive tangible impact on their dealings with external stakeholders.
