Martina is member #2231 of Peace and Collaborative Development Network. Mar 9

What motivated you to become involved in peace and conflict resolution?: I am a traveller at heart. I love meeting people of different cultures and I love coming into close contact with a different civilisation to my own. I have traveled to two places so far that have stolen my heart and that have had problems of civil and political violence - Nepal and Kenya. When I see such things occuring in places I myself have been, I get the urge to leave my life behind and dedicate myself to aiding the resolution processes. So far I have not 'left' my life behind for more than a few months at a go but overall, I try to keep myself informed and active in contributing what i can from the place I'm in - and a great part of that is learning more about peace and conflict resolution.

Please feel free to provide a short bio about yourself (no more than 3 paragraphs): I was born in a small island in the Mediterranean called Malta.
I have studied Psychology (as a first degree) and Human Rights (at masters level). I am highky interested in both and wish to combine them as I further my studies and in my work. I have travelled and worked in Egypt, Nepal, India and Kenya on various voluntary work projects.

What is your current job (and organization) and/or where and what field are you studying?: Tutor with autistic teenagers but will soon go on to study Psychology at doctorat level.

Which are your primary sectoral areas of expertise?: Education, Psychosocial
