Strengthening Quaker Connections Through Education Quakerism has a unique presence in Bolivia where the Indigenous Friends community is the third largest Quaker population globally numbering around 30000 members. This community has a profound commitment to social justice and education seeking fellowship and collaboration with Quakers from other parts of the world. Quaker testimonies emphasizing peace equality and community service resonate deeply with the values of many indigenous Bolivians. Indigenous peoples of Bolivia were systematically denied access to education until the mid20th century.
