How young people are making change happen in Rwanda
I'm a Quaker from Rwanda and have done peace work for many years. Together with my colleagues, I train young people on how to take nonviolent action, mediate conflicts or help others with healing from trauma. Over the years I have learned that in Rwanda justice campaigns are much more effective if they are supported or even led by young people.

Why the nuclear debate must uplift women’s voices
The question of nuclear arms is stuck in a rut. As recently as the 2019 General Election campaign, any budding prime minister had to be prepared to be asked whether they would press the hypothetical nuclear button. The vast majority of party leaders affirmed their readiness to use nuclear weapons, and those who would not do so were quickly labelled as unelectable, or without backbone.

Quaker organisations announce Nobel Prize nominations
The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) and Quaker Peace & Social Witness (QPSW) have nominated two organisations – Mwatana for Human Rights and Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) – for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize. In 1947, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the Friends Service Council (the precursor to QPSW) and AFSC on behalf of Quakers worldwide for their work during and after the two world wars to feed starving children and help Europe rebuild itself. The organisations use their nomination to highlight the work of others continuing the vital work of peacebuilding.

The nuclear ban treaty: why international law matters
The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will enter into force in international law on 22 January 2021.
