Projects
Q&B runs and supports a number of projects. Some projects are owned and managed by Q&B, others arise from the concerns of individual Q&B members who then propose a project to address the concern. These projects can be run in partnership with other organisations, sponsored by Q&B or members' projects where Q&B takes an interest.
Current Projects
- The 20th Century Quaker Business History project is a PhD research project into what happened to Quaker businesses after 1918 and the lessons to be learned for the 21st century. You can read more about the background of the project here and about the individual PhD projects here.
- The Quaker bank project's long term aim is to establish a new financial institution based on Quaker principles. The first step in this journey is the establishment of the Quaker Finance Trust, a peer to peer lending organisation. You can read more and sign up for email updates here.
- Restoring Relations is a project involving a number of Q&B members, that aims to help individuals and organisations handle conflict better. The project provides free online information and runs workshops in the UK.
