What we doand why now
The coalition's role behind the scenes, and why the moment demands it.
What we are
A coalition of mission agencies committed to seeing the third of humanity still without Gospel access reached. The Alliance does the unglamorous work behind the scenes: data sharing, strategy alignment, joint research, and shared advocacy. The public expression is A Third of Us — the movement Gen Z and Millennial Christians know.
Why now
There has never been a more urgent or more possible moment for unreached-people-group focus. AI translation tools, indigenous movements, and a generation hungry for purpose are converging. The Alliance exists so the agencies serving this work do it together rather than in parallel.
Three pillars bind the Alliance together
Coordinated action across the coalition, not parallel effort.
Strategy alignment
Quarterly convenings keep priorities clear and duplication at bay.
AlignData sharing
Member agencies contribute field-level data on unreached engagement.
