‘Peace is vital for the thriving coexistence of communities.’

Quaker Peacebuilding Perspectives (QPP) is an informal, international peace group formed in April 2022 out of deep concern about the tragic conflict in Ukraine. QPP is driven by the realisation that this conflict has grave far-reaching consequences for the wider region extending well into the future. All are welcome to join, Quakers and non-Quakers alike, to explore the wide variety of perspectives on topics of shared concern. This quest for common ground aims to shift the international geopolitical stage away from polarisation and towards long-lasting equitable peace.
