Sunday 14 June is Tax Justice Sunday: a day when Christians are encouraged to come together to reflect on the role of tax in society, and to speak out for a fairer tax system.

Inspiring the journey to COP26
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.

Would Little Amal go to Rwanda this year?
Last year, many British Quakers took part in or witnessed a series of events throughout Britain in which a 3m tall puppet, Little Amal, journeyed from the Syrian border via Dover to Manchester, joining in events and rallies during her journey. Amal symbolised the search for a new life of thousands of migrants and asylum seekers. The events were inspiring and full of hope.

Will COP27 deliver a loss and damage fund?
The next chapter in the struggle for loss and damage finance is about to take place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt. Thanks to the ongoing efforts of campaigners and Global South countries, the issue is on the provisional agenda for COP27. This still has to be agreed by parties at the beginning of the summit, but there appears to be little appetite for a long argument over the agenda.

Time to breathe
"Corrymeela begins when you leave", say the words carved into wood above the door. Corrymeela's residential centre near Ballycastle in Northern Ireland, was the setting for the first in-person gathering of the Peacebuilding Network (UK and Ireland). Corrymeela has been facilitating work on peace and reconciliation since 1965 before, during, and after the Troubles. As a membership organisation, it offers much more than a residential space but that's what we needed as we gathered together in warm May sunshine.

Solidarity, friendship and faith in climate justice
'Solidarity' is a term that is often used in conversations around climate and social justice. We send our solidarity to those suffering on the climate frontline in the Global South, to those who are displaced by extreme weather events and to those protesting fossil fuels projects that will devastate their local environment.

Why does taking action for just peace in Palestine and Israel support our work for climate justice?
On 19 June this year, the UK Government tabled a bill that infringes on our right to use boycott and divestment as peaceful means of protest. The 'Economic Activity of Public Bodies (Overseas Matters) Bill' (or 'Anti-boycott bill') aims to prevent public bodies (such as local authorities, universities, some pension funds and other public institutions like the National Health Service) from making financial decisions based on ethical choices.
