The Young Friends Worldwide for Climate Action, Peace, and Justice Network will begin a project with Woodbrooke in November on ‘The future and foundations of Quaker change-making’.

Over a series of conversations, the project will explore how our Quaker faith grounds and sustains lives of social action, and how it might help us resist burnout and despair.

Topics of discussion will include Quaker history and tradition, the role of community in negotiating disagreement, relationships with interfaith groups, managing hope and anxiety in times of climate emergency, and planning for the future.

We intend the project to be intergenerational, and we hope that it will be an opportunity for young Friends to discuss these issues with Friends from other places and generations.

Live sessions will be fortnightly, from November to February. More information about the course and signing up can be found here:
