LWF Gender Justice Policy
LWF Gender Justice Policy
The LWF Gender Justice Policy lays out a biblically-rooted framework for the Lutheran global communion of churches to take concrete steps to implement gender justice, adapting action plans to different contextual realities.
The policy document is divided into two parts:
- Gender Justice Policy Principles
- Gender Justice Methodology
The ten principles express the LWF communion’s core affirmations with regard to gender justice.
The methodology provides tools for the implementation of the gender justice principles that can be adapted to local contexts by LWF member churches and regional expressions.
The Church of Norway has taken the 10 principles of the LWF Gender Justice Policy into account in their strategic plan on gender equality. For more information (in Norwegian).
