Listening to and following the Spirit leads to:

As an expression of our Testimonies, BQEF seeks to:

  • Forge paths of multiculturalism and inclusion that enable mutual learning and solidarity among F/friends from Bolivia, the US, and the UK;

  • Support Indigenous Bolivians in their efforts to obtain a higher education and in their pursuit of livelihoods that embody Quaker testimonies;

  • Provide young F/friends with opportunities for growth, leadership, community service, and social justice work;

  • Support the concerns of Bolivian Quakers regarding  the impacts of climate change;

  • Provide practical experience in the Peace Testimony by supporting peace-making work, like Alternatives to Violence Workshops. 

As we work to accomplish these goals, we anticipate:

  • Increased collaboration and resource sharing between Bolivian Quakers and international Quaker communities.

  • Innovative educational and social justice events, projects, or programs that reflect Quaker values and local cultural contexts.

  • Improved participation of F/friends in Quaker networks in Bolivia, the US, and the UK.
