Global Generosity Network
Chairperson: Ram Gidoomal
The Global Generosity Network (GGN) is a joint initiative between the Lausanne Movement and the World Evangelical Alliance to encourage evangelical Christians to better stewards of their resources, live more generously and give more of their income to Kingdom causes where it is most needed.
The GGN challenges the global Church towards whole-life discipleship that includes radical generosity and wise stewardship. The GGN believes that such generosity will result in a dramatic increase in giving to Christian causes and especially to global mission where it is most needed.
The GGN:
- Promotes an integrated approach towards Biblical generosity and stewardship, church life, mission awareness and Christian giving
- Catalyses generosity collaboration globally, regionally and nationally through generosity networks;

Participants came from 8 European countries and included Christian business leaders and representatives of Evangelical Alliances, generosity ministries, church networks, ministry networks and mission networks.
- Equips Christians to share the Biblical message of generosity;
- Provides training and coaching in stewardship, generosity and fundraising;
- Works with Evangelical Alliances, churches and Christian networks to create generosity awareness. This is being done through the distribution of a generosity resources CD, online generosity resources, discussions, workshops, seminars and consultations;
- Encourages generosity commitment through a Generosity Declaration;
- Facilitates generosity engagement through specific Kingdom giving;
- Encourages better relationships between donors and ministries that receive funding through the use of the Lausanne Standards.
