| Summary: | A new model for ecumenical mission has emerged in the 1990s based on the metaphor of networking, the concept of civil society, and the institutional form of the non-governmental organization (NGO).

The model is then evaluated and suggestions are made for how this conceptual tool might best be applied. |
