abstract |
The world’s religions have made a contribution to environmental conservation and sustainable
development through faith-based non-governmental organizations. Partnerships between
secular conservation and development organizations and faith-based groups, however,
are not always easy. Such partnerships face various challenges, including differences
in worldviews, conflict between identities, and the attitudes and behavior of religious
groups that may not be favorable to conservation and development. Despite a possible
overlap of values, these incompatibilities can often cause tensions between secular
organizations and religious groups. A number of examples, however, suggest that faith-based
groups are starting to address these incompatibilities. We suggest that partnerships
with faith groups might be valuable because these groups can enhance public support
for conservation and development. While secular organizations need to work with faith
groups on the basis of shared ethical or moral values, identifying effective ways
to strengthen the linkages between secular organizations and faith groups is also
necessary. |
