Since 1974, the Lausanne Movement has been focused on world evangelization with a mission statement of “The whole Church taking the whole Gospel to the whole World.”

Over the past several decades, Lausanne has convened gatherings on a wide range of issues related to world evangelization. Many of these gatherings have resulted in theological and missional documents. In addition, Lausanne has a diverse team of senior advisors and working groups addressing a number of evangelization issues.

We have compiled a topical listing of evangelization issues and audiences for you to further explore the work of the Lausanne Movement, both past and present.
