Why QCEA is working on Human Rights
There are Quaker programmes relating to human rights in most countries. Our concern stems from our deeply held belief that there is that of God in every individual. Working from a 350 year old Quaker tradition, the Quaker Council for European Affairs is actively involved in promoting respect for human rights in the European Institutions in Brussels and elsewhere.

 If you have any suggestions or queries relating to these programmes, please contact QCEA
