We came to realize that responding to poverty through projects alone was not enough. We wanted to develop deeper relationships with our international partners. And we knew that it was necessary to identify, analyze and challenge the very systems that create or perpetuate hunger and poverty in order to make a real impact.<\/p>\n<p>The work of Joining Hands has impacted 10 countries overseas and the United States. Currently, we have Joining Hands networks in 7 countries including: Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo, El Salvador, Haiti, India, Peru and Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>We hope that you will join us in celebrating our 20 year journey!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/JH-wordcloud-2020-2v7-crop.jpg\" title=\"\" rel=\"lightbox-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1093 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/JH-wordcloud-2020-2v7-crop-500x399.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/centernet.pcusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/JH-wordcloud-2020-2v7-crop-500x399.jpg 500w, https:\/\/centernet.pcusa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/JH-wordcloud-2020-2v7-crop.jpg 759w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><\/h4>\n<h4>Stories<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/story\/joining-hands-twenty-years-of-perseverance\/\">Joining Hands: Twenty years of perseverance<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/02\/04\/the-beginning-of-joining-hands\/\">The Beginning of Joining Hands<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/02\/26\/a-legacy-of-defending-human-rights-and-restoring-dignity\/\">A Legacy of Defending Human Rights and Restoring Dignity<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/03\/06\/un-legado-de-defensa-de-los-derechos-humanos-y-restauracion-de-la-dignidad\/\">Un legado de defensa de los derechos humanos y restauraci\u00f3n de la dignidad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/03\/06\/seeking-a-reason-to-serve\/\">Seeking a Reason to Serve<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/03\/12\/buscando-una-razon-de-servicio\/\">Buscando una Raz\u00f3n de Servicio<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/04\/13\/accompanying-the-people-of-haiti-toward-justice\/\">Accompanying the people of Haiti toward justice<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/04\/22\/falling-in-love-with-peru\/\">Falling in Love with Peru<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/05\/29\/two-decades-of-journey-for-social-change\/\">Two decades of journey for social change<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"content__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/07\/01\/land-rights-victories-post-tsunami\/\">Land Rights Victories Post Tsunami<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/07\/31\/fighting-on-the-side-of-peasant-farmers\/\">Fighting on the side of peasant farmers<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/08\/13\/advocacy-for-mining-wealth-to-benefit-all\/\">Advocacy for Mining Wealth to Benefit All<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/09\/04\/the-eyesores-that-give-us-sight\/\">The Eyesores that Give us Sight<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/10\/22\/slogans-to-sovereignty\/\">Slogans to Sovereignty<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/together-justice\/2020\/11\/30\/mission-with-both-hands\/\">Mission with both hands<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>Resources<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.presbyterianmission.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/JH-Brief-3-2-2020-FINAL.docx\">Cheat Sheet on Joining Hands<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ITZdrkfO62s\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OKjDAFKeM1w\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Joining Hands is an initiative of the Presbyterian Hunger Program.
