Updated 31 August 2022

Will COP27 deliver a loss and damage fund?

Updated 3 November 2022

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.

Nurturing the spiritual life of our communities

Updated 22 December 2022

I am somebody who reflects on what is nourishing me spiritually quite regularly. Whether it be wild swimming, singing in harmony or a windy walk on the moors, I find a range of activities help fill up my spiritual cup. Quaker worship is an important part of my spiritual life and it is where I am part of an intergenerational community. I feel lucky that a large part of my role as a Local Development Worker is supporting Friends to ask the question 'what are we finding spiritually nourishing' – not as individuals but as a whole Quaker community.

Climate and health: sharing concerns and solutions with MSPs

Updated 15 March 2024

Quakers in Scotland and Medact put on an event on 13 March 2024 in the Scottish Parliament to inform our elected representatives about the important links between climate and health. MSPs gathered with other guests to hear about constituents' concerns and potential solutions. This built on a Time for Reflection given in the Scottish Parliament by Lesley Morrison, a retired GP and Friend from Tweeddale, in April 2023: Are we being good ancestors?.

6 ways our new government could build a peaceful and sustainable world

Updated 25 July 2024

Now that the UK has a new government, many will be watching to see how Labour's campaign translates into reality. We'll be hoping, of course, that it will result in positive changes for two topics that perhaps were not as prominent in the election campaign as we would have liked: climate justice and peace.
