Money and morality
Caroline Humphries reports on the recent London Quakers dialogue event
Britain Yearly Meeting 2012 asked Friends to ‘stand in the Light, pray for the emergence of a “good economy”, and practise our opposition to the current system: in our lives and in the deeply spiritual process of putting our money in better places’. Friends from across London gathered at Friends House on 16 March to attend a London Quakers dialogue event on ‘Money and Morality’. They came with a broad range of agendas: to get a better understanding of economics, to network with Friends who might be interested in setting up a social enterprise and to learn more about ethical banking. They also came to share their experiences and look for ways to take practical action.
