The Peaceworker – Pádraig Ó Tuama

Uncategorized

Pádraig Ó Tuama is a poet and peaceworker from Belfast. He uses poetry to bring people together to have difficult conversations and deliver mutual understanding.

Pádraig has trained both as a conflict mediator and a theologian. As a gay man he is keen to bring tools of dialogue into public discussions on LGBTI people and Religion and has been working with clergy from conservative viewpoints over the past number of years.

As well as poetry, he writes theology, essays and advocacy material and, very occasionally, he releases music. “Hymns to swear By” a collection of spoken word and music is available through here.
