Imagine a development sector fueled by the power of those with the least, a world where the people and communities most impacted by global decisions have a role in remaking the system to best serve the common good. Inspired by Pope Francis, the Global Solidarity Fund is a network of partners supporting innovative public-private partnership among and beyond Catholic networks that place the most vulnerable at the center of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
With support from GHR Foundation and others, GSF is connecting people, ideas and networks to build an inclusive economy, to amplify the leadership of Catholic sisters, and to shine a light on the development contributions made by the Catholic Church. One initiative, representing Catholic sisters around the world, is the work of International Union of Superiors General (UISG) in bringing the unique voice of sisters into the global dialogue, strengthening not only programs led by sisters, but other efforts supporting those most vulnerable. As an initial effort, GSF is working with UISG to tell the compelling story of sisters’ leadership in leading community-based solutions to COVID-19.
Additionally, through support provided to the Vatican COVID-19 Commission and to partners in the field, GSF has lent its support to the Church’s role in the response to coronavirus. Moving forward from 2020 and beyond, GSF will use its network and voice to tell the powerful story of the Catholic experience and call to action – not only in recent times, but over the long term — to the broader development community and public. GSF also provides support for other Church initiatives to promote development that is sustainable and inclusive and works for the benefit of all.
