21. Recap of the 2018 Spiritual Metrics and Research Intensive

The Accord Research Alliance Podcast

Today's podcast was recorded live at the end of the Spiritual Metrics and Research Intensive on October 29, 2018 at the Accord Forum in Ridgecrest, NC. The podcast's co-hosts, Kristen Check, Rodney Green, and Nathan Mallonee, are joined by David Bronkema to discuss their thoughts on the day and possible next steps for the Accord Research Alliance. The topic for the intensive was "Integrating Faith with Relief, Development, and Advocacy: Research, Metrics and Implementation." Our keynote speakers did a fantastic job framing the entire day's conversation: * Jean Duff, Joint Learning Initiative on Faith & Local Communities * Rebecca Shah, Religious Freedom Institute Then a panel of practitioners from member organizations shared case studies of how they were addressing this topic in their work: * Kristen Check, Water Mission * Rebecca Mentzer, HOPE International * Nathan Mallonee, Living Water International * Ryan Smedes, Food for the Hungry * Mikaela Cochran, Compassion International To get connected to the Accord Research Alliance and find out more about next year's intensive, email us at [e-mail].
