About JLI

An international collaboration on evidence for faith actors’ activities, contributions, and challenges to achieving humanitarian and development goals. Founded in 2012, JLI came together with a single shared conviction: there is an urgent need to build our collective understanding, through evidence, of faith actors in humanitarianism and development.

On September 9 2021, JLI held a webinar where Dr. Nalika Gajaweera, University of Southern California, presented her paper on the Intersection of gender, nationalism, and faith-based giving in Sri Lanka – The Mothers of the Righteous Society: Lay Buddhist Women as Agents of the Sinhala Nationalist Imaginary. Dr. Andrea Paras, University of Guelph, responded followed by a Question and Answer session.
