Pakistan floods, global humanitarian crises and the role of the local church   Welcome to our Conversations. In this episode, we chat with Oenone Chadburn, Tearfund's Head of Humanitarian and Resilience work. Oenone has oversight of all Tearfund's emergency response work, so we chat about the current situation in Pakistan before taking a look around the world at the range of crises we see.   Through it all, we talk about the need to honour the dignity of individuals and communities, and the vital role of local churches in both emergency response, and long term development.   Enjoy.

Welcome back to Conversations - a Tearfund in Northern Ireland podcast! We're all about connecting the voice of the local and the global church as together we seek God's Kingdom in the here and now.   In episode 1, we speak with Jonny Currie from the Trussell Trust, a food bank network, about the reality of poverty here in Northern Ireland and some of the challenges for churches that are seeking to respond. We'll also hear about Tearfund's work in Lebanon.

Welcome to our final episode of this run of 'Conversations'.   Today we chat with Tearfund CEO Nigel Harris. We hear about his journey of faith and leadership, about the challenges facing global development and we hear some wonderful stories of local change through the local church. You'll love listening into our conversation.
