IDNOWA visit The Netherlands

The executive director of IDNOWA and some members were invited by its partners ,  the Protestant Church in The Netherlands one a week.  The purpose of the visit is an exchange program with the aim to meet with different organisations and inform relevant bodies of the Protestant church as well as the general public in the Netherlands about the threatening human rights situation of LGBTIQ people in Ghana, and Nigeria. A second purpose is to improve the partnership between Kerk in Actie and the Interfaith Diversity Network of West Africa (IDNOWA).  

During the visits the IDNOWA team met with the religious, parliamentarians and several civil society organizations.  

Davis Mac-Iyalla preached an amazing sermon on Sunday 15th September at Nieuwe Kerk, Groningen. He centred his message on Dead Faith and Suffering and encouraged the congregation to use their faith to reshape the world around them by speaking out against all forms of injustice  and discrimination.
