FWCC AWPS CONVERSATION: "Quaker Aid & Development in Asia West Pacific”

FWCC AWPS CONVERSATION: "Quaker Aid & Development in Asia West Pacific”
26 MARCH 2022

Asia has been a powerhouse of change over the last thirty years, but economic and social development has not always been evenly distributed. Before and after covid, there are wider questions about quality of life, empowerment, freedoms, peace, equality and what aid and development does best to assist. Have Friends’ general perceptions about the priorities for aid, peace and development caught up with realities on the ground? Four Quaker agencies with experience have kindly offered to introduce their work and their perspectives and learning about aid, peace and development in the 21st century.

Speakers: American Friends Service Committee (Sandra Veloso); Quaker Peace and Service Aotearoa New Zealand
(Susan Hamel, Derry Gordon, Stephanie du Fresne); Quaker Service Australia (Jackie Perkins); Quaker United Nations Office, Geneva
