Description
Berhane Woldegabriel was an Eritrean refugee who settled in the UK for the last thirty years of his life. He became a dedicated peacemaker, using his great political understanding and interpersonal skills to build bridges both amongst his own Eritrean people, and within wider communities.
Berhane was a universalist who loved people regardless of nationality and creed. Himself a man of strong presence and opinions, he believed, and demonstrated, that individuals and groups could resolve conflict by accepting their differences, finding a common purpose, and abandoning hate.
Berhane was warm, erudite and entertaining and his death in 2020 has left a huge gap in the lives of his friends and loved ones. In the hope that his work and ideas will continue, the editors of this book trace his development as a peacemaker from his early years, combining tributes, photographs and a narrative of his life’s journey.
