World Council of Churches, Geneva.
The International Missionary Council (IMC) emerged from the world missionary conference held
at Edinburgh in 1910 and was officially established in 1921. It linked 14 interdenominational
associations of missionary societies with some 16 field bodies and devoted itself to the study
and resolution of such issues as missionary freedom, general and theological education, opium
addiction, labour, slavery, racial discrimination, the church in rural and industrial society, home
and family life, and - from very early on - the emerging ecumenical movement..
