Launch of new Quaker equity network

A new Quaker equity network is to look at how differences, including those attributed to race, class, sex, neurodiversity and others, are interlinked in order to build a better future together.

All are welcome at the Zoom launch meeting on 8 August from 11am to 1pm which will include talks from the Quaker Disability Equality Group and from the new anti-racism group.

This first meeting will explore the intersection of racism and neurodiversity.

Initiated by Edwina Peart, inclusion and diversity co-ordinator at Quakers in Britain, the equity network, has grown out of Quaker commitment and work towards becoming an inclusive, welcoming church.

The equity network will meet three or four times a year and be made up of smaller networks examining various aspects of inequality including homophobia, ageism and racism.
