Leadership and training

Community development
The CDP — Community Development Project — is Together International’s long-term programme, now in its ninth cohort. Four of its six areas are North Korea-facing, including farming methods developed so that degraded land can be restored.

Prayer
The daily prayer on this site is part of this, not decoration around it. It has been published every weekday since April 2015.
