Quaker Earthcare Witness Committees and Working Groups

There are two main groupings within QEW's organization:

1. Standing Committees who oversee basic organizational functions

2. Working groups who oversee issues of interest and special projects

Standing Committees include

  • Steering Committee

  • Continuing Counsel

  • Outreach Committee

  • Spiritual Nurturance Committee

  • Personnel Committee

  • Finance and Development Committee

  • Publications Committee

  • Nominating Committee

Working Groups are

  • Population Working Group

  • UN Working Group

  • No Name Working Group

  • Mini-Grants

  • Friends Centering on Unity with Nature

  • Ad-Hoc Future Planning Group

In between face-to-face meetings, these groups conduct their business by e-mail, video-conference calls, and other media. Many other ecological issues, including energy, agriculture, population, climate change, and traditional wisdom are being addressed informally by individual QEW members who feel especially led to work on those concerns.

In addition, QEW sponsors an on-line discussion group to explore ideas and share resources.
