You might be wondering what the Life! Initiative is all about! Our pilot Life! Initiative began in July 2008 in Zambia. Since then we've been working to launch two more initiatives. It's been running really well and you can find out more here...

Life! is Dignity’s pioneering new mission initiative.
Its goal is to invest in the grass-roots villagers and leaders in rural Zambia by supporting and empowering them both spiritually and practically.
From our work to date, we know that there are many devoted Christians in Africa, who will selflessly
dedicate their time and energy to helping others in need. However, these same people are hampered in their endeavours through extreme poverty and a lack of support themselves. |
|
| |
| The ‘Life!’ initiative will target these people. We will support them spiritually by developing their leadership abilities and Christian Faith. We will also support them practically by transferring the skills necessaryto improve their crop yields, start micro-businesses or learn basic health care techniques. |
|
| Most importantly, we will train these individuals to become teachers themselves and pass onto others, what we have taught them. This will nurture self-suffi ciency and the belief that their communities can transform their own lives. |
