Christian Education Movement
Key takeaways
- The only grants figure given is £10,000, spent on overseas translation, printing and distribution, and no grant range or geographic focus is stated, so a modest, clearly costed request is the safest approach.
- No application process is published, so get in touch through the contact shown on its website before writing anything formal, and ask whether your work fits one of these funds, because the criteria themselves are not given.
- Its IBRA International Fund supports partners who translate and produce religious reading material for local readers, and its Small Grants Fund still considers applications that fit its original criteria, which supported young people attending residential courses, conferences and holidays.
- The annual report says IBRA grants are not fully funded so that more partners can benefit, so do not assume the whole cost will be covered.
- Nothing published excludes any type of organisation, but a project outside religious learning or faith resources is unlikely to fit.

Priority Areas
Christian Education Movement advances education by promoting lifelong learning in religion and faith. Its IBRA International Fund receives voluntary giving from individual readers and makes grants to international partners to translate and produce resources for local readers. These grants help partners make religious reading material available to their communities; IBRA materials circulate in multiple countries, often in local languages. The Small Grants Fund continues to support applications that fit its original criteria; it supports young people from churches to attend residential courses, conferences and holidays. The wider charity serves people in their personal faith and those working in education. CE / RE Today provides support, training, research and curriculum development, while the Movement describes its purpose as equipping, supporting and resourcing human flourishing through Religious Education services, materials, guidance and leadership.
