Marina Cantacuzino is an award-winning journalist who has worked for publications including The Guardian, The Telegraph and Hello magazine. In response to the invasion of Iraq, she embarked on a personal project collecting stories of people who had lived through trauma and injustice, and sought forgiveness rather than revenge. With the support of founding patrons Dame Anita Roddick and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Marina founded The Forgiveness Project in 2004. Marina says of the work: “The stories reflect the complex, intriguing and deeply personal nature of forgiveness, occupying a space of inquiry and authenticity rather than dogma or the need to fix. Everything I have learnt about this thorny and complex subject of forgiveness has come from the people who have generously shared their stories with me over the years.â€
