Profile Information
- What motivated you to become involved in peace and conflict resolution?
- As a Quaker i have a commitement to nonviolence, however much of a struggle that is, so i wanted my work life to reflect that commitment and struggle. The quote by Robert Inchuati would articulate why i am involved:
'The evil the enemy may do never expresses all that he is.
Nonviolence is a wager, not so much on the goodness of humanity ~ as on its infinite complexity'.
- Please feel free to provide a short bio about yourself (no more than 3 paragraphs)
- I currently work for the Tim Parry Johnathan Ball Foundation for Peace (www.foundation4peace.org) finalising the work on the Legacy Project which has worked with individuals and communities from Great Britain affected by bereavement, injury or trauma that is directly linked to the Northern Ireland Troubles. I will soon be moving into a research role within the charity, as a process of embedding the programme work we do in a reflective framework.
Prior to this i studied for my Doctorate at the Centre for Peace and Reconciliation Studies in Coventry, England. My Doctorate explored the role of community arts as a tool for reconciliation in Northern Ireland.

I'm currently doing an MA in Peace Studies at University of Notre Dame (Indiana, USA). Together with some classmates we are working on a small assignment on peacebuilding in Nagaland. We are trying to learn who is doing what in terms of peacebuilding and what the major challenges are. It's not easy to find information on civil society organizations. Can you help us with some links or comments?

I am very happy to hear about your programme and how serious human rights and justice issues were treated. Since I learn about human rights 15 years ago I have held on to it.
I equally discovered that the foundation for peace can only be achieved when the fundamental human rights of the people are respected and guaranteed. It is the bedrock of human existence on this our planet.
Cheers!
