At the ACC-13 meeting in Nottingham a resolution was passed that asked
the Secretary General to do a number of things in connection with the
Listening Process. They included:

To collate relevant research studies, statements, resolutions and other
material on these matters from the various Provinces and other
interested bodies within those Provinces
To make such material available for study, discussion and reflection
within each member Church of the Communion
To identify and allocate adequate resources for this work, and to report
progress on it to the Archbishop of Canterbury, to the next Lambeth
Conference and the next meeting of this Council, and to copy such
reports to the Provinces.
As a result of this motion The Revd Canon Philip Groves was hired as the
facilitator of the Listening process to work within the Anglican
Communion Office. Philip is a canon of All Saints' Mpwapwa, Tanzania and
continues his parish ministry in England. Following his presentation at
ACC-14 and the announcement of  The Continuing Indaba and Mutual
Listening Project. In the podcast that follows he talks about the
challenges and opportunities of the listening process and the role the
new project will play in assisting people to hear and listen to God and
to one another on the subject of human sexuality.
