Communication Consultancy


Communicating the message
© LWF/A. Berthelin

Communication is an integral part of the ministry of the church. Communion expresses itself through communication, while communication strengthens communion.

To support the development of effective communication, the DMD Communication Consultancy program aims to:

  • strengthen member churches' competence in the area of communication
  • provide communication tools and technical resources and equipment
  • assist in communication research and study.
