Recommendations The position paper contains more than fifty recommendations. They address churches, governments and the private sector. Some examples of the recommendations of the Federation of Swiss Protestant Churches (FSPC )are mentioned below: Within churches in regard to faith commitment FSPC recommends – integrating the issue of economic globalisation and economic justice in preaching and in confession in worship services; and – integrating discussions on the final document of the 24th General Council of WARC in Accra and on the results of the 9th General Assembly of the WCC in Porto Alegre in preaching and teaching. Confession during liturgy should be inspired by these events. – Following the Accra action plan FSPC recommends promoting «gender equality in all economic and environmental efforts of the churches such as leadership, employment, finances, inheritance.» Gender needs to be integrated as a cross cutting issue. Towards the governments – FSPC recommends increasing the Official Development Assistance (ODA) to attain the internationally agreed ODA target of an ODA/GNI ratio of 0.7% until 2015. We further recommend implementing new and innovative financing mechanisms to mobilize fi nancial resources. Towards the private sector – Following the Accra plan of action FSPC recommends promoting «the implementation and recognition of human rights, especially workers’ rights, including migrant � �workers’ �rights, according � to �ILO standards»; and «to orient their activities towards economic and environmental justice.» Key issues A GLoB LAncE In its final chapter, the position paper includes various recommendations on the following key issues: Bearing witness of the faith by word and action: – Confessing faith – Strengthening faith – Practicing faith – Taking political and economic responsibility – Creating decent work for all – Shaping global trade in a fair and justice manner – Stabilizing financial markets – Promoting sustainable development and protecting the creation �� – GLOBALANCE - CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVES – 191
