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.

This project, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), investigates the cooperation between religious leaders, communities, and faith-based organisations (FBOs) and the various organisations and
programmes of the United Nations (such as UNICEF, UNFPA, the World Bank, etc.)

Based at the Professorship for Spiritual Care at the University of Zurich, this project is specifically interested in the concepts and models of health and healthcare which emerged in this context over the past three decades, and how these are relevant to the Swiss public health system, and the engagement of Switzerland in global health.
