The exchange of ideas is a way to build understanding. Shared experience has become increasingly important for the health and strength of the Anglican Communion.
In recent years, immediate access to information has shaped the way we do Church business at all levels. However, the Church in the Global South continues to struggle to gain access to the required new technology. Since its inception, the Telecommunications program objective has filled an important funding niche, focusing on connecting the worldwide Communion through database creation and network development.
The Trinity Grants Program has been committed to developing equal technological access within the Anglican Communion by providing telecommunications equipment and training to leaders who are shaping the future of the Church. Through new technologies, emerging educational institutions can communicate with the greater Anglican network and the world. The increasing availability of online theological resources is of particular benefit to our partners in the Global South.
The Trinity Grants Program is committed to supporting the exchange of ideas through new and innovative technologies.
Database Creation: Supporting the development of and access to, digital resources and online libraries in such areas of program interest as theological education, leadership management training, community development, preventive health care, and citizens’ participation in public life. Priority will be given to proposals that make these resources accessible to seminarians and the next generation of Church leaders in the Global South.
Network development: Limited assistance to provinces and dioceses with strategic need for communication technology, including email, internet access, radio system and other appropriate communication technologies. Priority will be given to proposals that make computer training available to seminarians and the next generation of Church leaders in the Global South.
