Getting to the root of things: peace, crime and justice

Updated 12 February 2021

Hundreds of years ago, one of the founders of Quakerism, George Fox, claimed that it was possible to live a life with a 'power that took away the occasion of all wars'.For Quakers then and Quakers today, this means that we want to end not just a particular war, but also the root causes of war. In the same way, we want to take away the root causes of all crime.

How young people are making change happen in Rwanda

Updated 30 March 2021

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.

Fragments of truth: putting a spotlight on arms sales to Yemen

Updated 5 March 2021

Imagine that you're sitting quietly in your apartment. You get a call telling you of a bomb outrage. A crowded bus blown up. An occasion for dismay, horror – but action? What could be required of you? What help could you possibly bring?

Why the nuclear debate must uplift women’s voices

Updated 18 March 2021

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. In effect, the question of using nuclear weapons has ceased to be a question – it's been reduced to a litmus test: are you 'man' enough, or not, to hold the lives of hundreds of millions people in your nuclear-armed hands?

Why protest shouldn’t be prevented

Updated 20 August 2021

A key part of Quaker faith is putting that faith into action, trying to change the world using nonviolent methods. For a religion that believes all people have value as children of God, using violence to force change is off the agenda.

Connection, belonging and meaning in lockdown

Updated 2 February 2022

Reflecting on this past twelve months, none of us can claim that people of faith or faith communities have done more or differently than anyone else. All of us, of every faith and none, have longed for connection. We've joined with others and served our neighbours and our communities. We've lost loved ones. We've grieved for our own lost hopes. We've fretted and wept through the long night, and struggled to find the will to get up in the morning and begin the new day. We've held in our grief like a caught breath, waiting to weep. The spaces between us feel filled with ghosts and memories and things lost.

Inspiring the journey to COP26

Updated 8 April 2021

The UN climate talks, COP26, will take place in Glasgow in November this year. The focus is on 'Uniting the World to Tackle Climate Change'. It is of global significance.Of course, I have always been aware that climate change is something I should take seriously but, to be truthful, I had done very little. However, in January 2020 I experienced the catastrophic outcome of a severe summer drought in Australia. Suddenly climate change became personal.
