Empowerment Program
The IPA Empowerment Program page is your gateway into the vital grassroots heartbeat of the International Presentation Association. Here, we introduce the role of Justice Contacts—community-rooted leaders who bridge local realities with global advocacy. You’ll learn who they are, where they serve around the world, and how their on-the-ground insights guide our mission toward justice, peace, and human dignity.
This page offers a closer look at the diverse projects shaped and led by our Justice Contacts, from environmental protection and women’s empowerment to community development, education, and systemic advocacy aligned with our core focus areas. Their work illuminates how local action fuels global change, and how communities themselves become the architects of transformation.
As our network continues to grow, so will this space. We will regularly share new stories, initiatives, and opportunities to engage with the IPA’s mission. Designed to deepen understanding and invite participation, this page serves as an open door into the lived, evolving work of empowerment unfolding across our global community.

What is the Empowerment program?
The Empowerment Program is our way of equipping and uplifting the Justice Contacts who carry hope into their communities every day. Through training in advocacy, justice, leadership, and more, we strengthen their voices; through resources—manuals, videos, practical tools—we lay a solid foundation beneath their feet. We weave connections across borders, building a global network where ideas travel freely, and encouragement finds its way home. And through it all, we stay rooted in our charism, letting faith breathe meaning into the work and guide each step toward a more just world.

For more information about Justice Contacts and their work in their communities, visit our Resource Hub. There, you’ll find the Justice Contact Manual, which offers a detailed guide to their role and activities, along with a wide range of other IPA-related materials, resources, and tools that highlight our mission, programs, and advocacy work around the world.
