Meros Africa Network
The Meros Africa Network serves as a virtual center of excellence for Christian health ministries in Africa through faith-based research, professional development, and cross-cultural collaborations. Our goal is to support a global, network-of-networks to measure and grow impact in Christian health ministry, applying faith-health evidence and training to create new models that connect people to Jesus’ love.
What Makes Africa Unique?
Africa is home to some of the most dynamic and effective Christian health ministries in the world. Yet, many leaders face challenges in accessing data, tools, and collaborative networks that allow them to deepen their impact. We at the Meros Center are joining hands with African ministries and researchers who are already shaping the future of health and faith in their communities. Already working in 7 African countries, our Meros Africa Network will continue to support, build, and deliver Christ-centered, community focused research, training, partnerships and innovation in and throughout Africa to proclaim the Good News and help “love our neighbor”.
