On October 13th, Friends Meeting of Washington hosted an event for Quakers and the general public to learn more about a new joint working paper recently published by the American Friends Service Commitee and Friends Committee on National Legislation, titled "Shared Security: Reimagining US foreign policy." The document, published in April 2013, lays out new ways that the U.S. can engage with the global community, based on principles of cooperation and human security.
Listen to this short audio story to hear more about the document, as well as how audience members responded to the presentation and discussion on how Quakers and their allies can work together to create a world that prioritizes human rights and the peaceful resolution to conflict.
