As World Vision is one of the largest Development agencies the importance for improvement should be high. This article should belong to the range of the Indian Christiaity workgroup. --Diskriminierung (talk) 14:21, 2 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Merger Debate

edit

Please refrain from discussing this matter here as there are multiple articles proposed as part of this merger. Instead, please discuss this merger at: Talk:World_Vision#Merger_of_World_Vision_Australia_and_World_Vision_India_into_this_article. thewinchester 14:04, 20 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Per discussion in the above link, there is not good evidence of the need for a merger at this time. Blue Rasberry 18:19, 29 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'm from Germany and don`t know the conventions on how to put a request of sources in an article, but this article needs improvement of this kind very badly. So please Dear project india: source it. ;-) --Diskriminierung (talk) 14:16, 2 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Statement by World Vision India

edit
                                      To whomsoever it may concern

This statement is being issued by World Vision India to clarify false information being propagated by media. We were deeply shocked by the killing of Swami Laxmanananda Saraswathi and others at his ashram. We strongly condemn this dastardly act of taking life and law into ones own hands and the violence surrounding this. Violence of any kind is never justifiable and adds to protract the suffering and misery of common people. The allegations in news articles both print and television, linking staff of World Vision India to the happenings in Kandhamal district are totally false and baseless. World Vision or its staff are not party to or participants in the recent violence in Kandhamal district. The fact is that World Vision staff were rescued by the police from a mob that stopped them on their way to Bhubaneswar. The Police after verifying their identity and purposes let them go. At this time, World Vision would also like to state that Shri. Radhakant Nayak. MP, Member of Rajya Sabha, who is purported as being associated with World Vision India in certain media, is not part of the organisation. World Vision India has been serving the poor in India over the last five decades through relief and development programmes in close cooperation with communities, the government and other NGOs. In Orissa, World Vision has been working in seven districts. As relief and development agency World Vision works closely with several non-governmental organisations, other aid agencies, global institutions and specialised agencies of the United Nations. Our aid workers work closely with the government, NGOs and the community on education, economic development and health. World Vision does not engage in proselytising or using aid and development to tamper with people’s faith. World Vision policy expressly prohibits this. World Vision serves all people regardless of religion, caste, race, ethnicity or gender.

Looks like the whole article is written by the organization themself or directly copied from their website. Article needs more citations or needs to be rephrased to a more neutral tone. Santhoshprabhu96 (talk) 12:14, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
