World Council of Churches (WCC)

The World Council of Churches (WCC) is an international Christian organization that brings together numerous Christian churches, denominations, and faith communities to promote unity, dialogue, and cooperative action. Founded in 1948, it seeks to foster shared values, address global issues like peace, justice, and human rights, and deepen the understanding among different Christian traditions. The WCC does not serve as a governing body but functions as a collaborative network, encouraging mutual respect and joint efforts to witness their faith collectively while respecting diverse theological perspectives.
