Our panel continues answering questions about how Faith Covenants can dovetail into the Civil Society Covenant, how power was considered within the evaluation, and how women can be better included in certain structures.

Questions from our audience include how can faith be better placed to take advantage of programmes such as social prescribing, and how do we get responses and measure the impact of grassroots organisations.

This report tells us the obvious, the way that faith works locally can be different, but when it works, it works fantastically well. @BishopRobW

Our attendees are getting an opportunity to ask questions of our panel.

Faith Covenants need to have a champion to work effectively @ASUbhi. Lots of work went into the original Covenant in Birmingham, shaping what the Covenant would become.

Faith should look at how to become more businesslike, holding our local authorities to account @mustafafield

The attendees are hearing from a panel of Faith leaders, Covenant representatives and our evaluation team sharing their responses to the report.

Report has 9 key recommendations for central government, the APPG, @FaithActionNet, and local partners

Faith brings an offer that is distinct.

3 areas of policy opportunities: 1) Social Cohesion Strategy, 2) Local Government reorganisation & 3) Civil Society Covenant

Key individuals also can be important, but losing those people can provide a challenge.

Capacity and resourcing often the most limiting factor for working effectively.

Responding to crisis gives Faith Covenant value for money.

Evaluation was independent, meaning results could be interpreted as things emerged rather than going looking for specific issues.
