South Australian Gill Hicks - considered to be one of the most thought provoking, powerful and life affirming speakers in Australia and the UK - will speak at AMA25.
We are excited to announce that Gill Hicks, who is globally known as an advocate for sustainable peace and a valuable resource in countering violent extremism, will speak at our upcoming national conference.
Gill's devotion to making a personal greater contribution and positive difference to the urgency of building peace was realised when she was made permanently injured in the London terrorist bombings on July 7th, 2005. She was the last living victim rescued after the bombings. Her injuries were so severe that she was initially not expected to live.
But Gill is much more than a survivor. Designing 'sustainable peace' has become the core focus to her body of work. She has also been awarded an MBE and an AM in recognition of her work within the charity sector.
