Micah Institute launched at New York Theological Seminary

In February, the New York Theological Seminary (NYTS) announced the launch of its Micah Institute, which is an initiative aimed at educating churches and religious leaders in the New York Metro Area about global poverty and injustice issues.

To assist with this, the Micah Institute at NYTS has partnered with the Micah Challenge USA Campaign, which is also headquartered at NYTS. This initiative is part of a global Micah Challenge that is geared to achieving the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, which seek to cut extreme poverty in half by the year 2015.
