Held in Nairobi, Kenya, last week, the inaugural assembly of the Anglican Alliance for Development, Relief and Advocacy reached a consensus on three immediate mandates.

The conference heard presentations on microfinance from Peterson Kamau of Five Talents, the church's microfinance institution, and Moses Ochieng of the Consultative Group to Assist the Poor, a consortium of donors and development agencies offering basic financial services to people in impoverished countries.
