Ep 69 – Empowering truth with Marc Antoine

Anna speaks to Marc Antoine, Tearfund's Country Director for Haiti, about his experience of telling the truth for climate justice, ongoing crises, addressing issues of poverty and empowering young people. Marc teaches us his understanding of decolonisation in telling the truth about history and modelling God's kingdom by valuing all voices.If you would like to hear more about Tearfund's work in Haiti, follow this link here.Poverty is not God’s plan. You are. If you would like to support our work and change lives, please donate here.
