More InformationThe International Partnership on Religion and Sustainable Development (PaRD) is a global multi-stakeholder partnership. PaRD was established in 2016 under the leadership of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), alongside other partners such as the World Bank and USAID. PaRD serves as a bridge between religious and secular actors, fostering joint solutions to today’s global challenges. Governmental, multilateral, academic, religious, and other civil society actors work together on a long-term, equal footing to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda.
PaRD’s work is grounded in the core principles of human rights, including freedom of thought, conscience, religion, or belief (FoRB). The partnership currently focuses on the following areas: food security (SDG 2), health (SDG 3), gender equality (SDG 5), environmental protection and climate action (SDGs 6, 13, 14, 15), as well as peace and justice (SDG 16). Through working groups and global conferences such as the Annual Forum, members exchange knowledge and lessons learned, making successful approaches and collaborative experiences visible at the global level. To support the development of more effective and inclusive policies and implementation strategies, PaRD members produce expert publications, policy recommendations, and practical guidelines for decision-makers and practitioners.
The PaRD Secretariat is hosted by the sector project “Religion for Sustainable Development,” which is implemented by the German agency for development cooperation, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of BMZ.
