This research paper asks how Tearfund, with its emphasis on working through the church wherever possible, can pursue peacebuilding if it is not also seeking unity within a divided church. The research offers recommendations as to how Tearfund as an organisation could engage in ecumenism to widen its vision for peacebuilding.
