The Vision International has divided the world into Zones. Each Zone is represented by a Zone Leader who is working to strategically raise up national leadership for expanding the Vision Network. By the hundreds, Resource Centers are being started, leaders are being trained, and churches are being planted all over the World.
Vision International is thoroughly committed to indigenous missionary endeavors. VISION places a high level of respect on the local culture and customs of our partners around the world, allowing them to translate, contextualize, and adapt the curriculum to suit their own needs in their immediate ministry environment.
The two major themes turning heads in the missions community are the integration of Church Planting and Leadership Training. A problem exists, however, in a lack of integration of these two major streams of mission. Church planting ministries are desperate for trained workers and Leadership Training Ministries are looking for places for their graduates to minster. Through a Strategic Partnership between VISION and churches, programs are established worldwide.
VITEN Networks focus on local church-based education and positions itself to help bring integration between leadership training and church planting. The vision for church planting comes from hundreds of strong local churches VITEN partners with, and who have a compatible vision to plant churches. Through VITEN, church planters can be trained in their local setting. By working together we can see churches planted around the world
The Vision International Training & Education Network has divided the world into 13 World Zones, each with a highly qualified World Zone Leader assigned to its respective geographical region. The World Zone Leaders are faculty members and coordinate the Resource Centers, Curriculum Translation Projects, and National Teaching Staff within their Zone.

All of our World Zone leaders are fulltime missionaries or indigenous servants of God. With adequate resources, they can expand the vision of Vision throughout their region. To do so, they need benefactors…men and women who help underwrite their national or regional outreaches.
