Ruth Hickin

I have always been involved in campaigning in both my personal and professional life, my first work experience was at an anti-arms trade organisation.

My last job was in the world of peacebuilding – an amazing experience that connected me with some of the thousands of people, all over the globe, who are working tirelessly to change the shape of the world we live in.

A diametrically opposed mix of enthusiasm and a sense of calm…!

The people, the passion, the unbelievable potential – and in particular the focus on young people as the solution, not the problem.
