The Australian Yearly Meeting Emergency & Species Extinction Working Group is holding online workshops with Quakers throughout Australia to shape the continued work on the Climate Action Plan. The Climate Action Plan was accepted by the Australian Yearly Meeting in July 2023 and calls on Australian Friends to take urgent action to stop the continued damage and harm done to the planet. These efforts include taking action; educating and mentoring; repairing relations with the Earth; reevaluating finances; mourning loss and instilling hope; repairing the Earth; and listening and supporting First Nations Peoples.
In preparation for the 2024 Yearly Meeting, the Working Group—with feedback from Australian Quakers—hopes to expand the action plan to include a witness and accountability process. You can learn more about this work here.
