About QCEA:
The Quaker Council for European Affairs (QCEA) brings a vision of peace, justice and equality to Europe and its institutions. We advocate for a new approach to security, focusing on nonviolent approaches to conflict. We promote policies that recognise the intrinsic equality of all people everywhere and reduce fear of the 'other'. In addition to our staff team in Brussels, QCEA is governed and supported by Quaker communities from across Europe. Our new strategy in 2026 will focus on three pillars:
1) Address the Intersections of Climate, Migration, and Peace
2) Speaking Truth to Power in a Crisis of Democracy
3) Rethinking Security in Europe
The Quaker peace testimony underpins all our work and our areas of work are connected, particularly with regards to their root causes in cultural and structural violence and economic and racial injustice. QCEA therefore prioritises working collaboratively as a team, actively seeking synergies both within our work and with the work of others.
Role Description:
The invasion of Ukraine and changing security perceptions have emboldened the arms industry and weaponised fear. With rising militarisation across Europe, the security discourse needs to be steered toward one that addresses root causes of conflict and promotes just solutions working towards sustainable civil security. In several European countries, civil society networks of academics and activists are advancing visions of security that are based on proactively building peace, and promoting human dignity and cooperation, in tangible geopolitical terms. These national level civil security initiatives are called \"Rethinking Security\".
Reporting to the Director, the Rethinking Security Programme Officer will be a member of our small team based at Quaker House in Brussels. The position will focus on building our relationships with relevant civil society and institutional stakeholders in Brussels, and coordinating QCEA efforts with a network of national Rethinking Security initiatives.
