Olivier Nkunzimana is originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo and has been living and working in Leeds for the last 16 years. Olivier has been involved in Together for Peace since his arrival in Leeds in 2006 through different projects and events. He considers himself a citizen of the world who is passionate about global cultures, languages, and world views. The love of nations largely informs his vocation; in the last 15 years Olivier has been working with newly arrived refugees from around the world, supporting them to integrate in their beloved city of Leeds. In his spare time he enjoys playing and watching football, and is increasingly enjoying outdoor activities — especially hiking.
