Sarah Cheverton is a feminist, a freelance writer, researcher and co-ordinator of the Portsmouth Writer Hub.

In addition to the day job, Sarah spends an increasing amount of time developing her freelance writing and journalism. As well as being a regular writer and co-editor for Womens Views on News, she is currently writing her first novel. Her writing has been featured in a number of publications over the years, including Vagina Magazine, ‘The Feminist Seventies’ (Raw Nerve Press) and Children and Young People Now. She will soon be published in a book of travel writing on Malaysia, ‘Sini Sana: Travels in Malaysia’.

These podcasts are based on a series of articles - 'Being Peace in Israel and Palestine' - about her experiences in Israel and Palestine as part of a unique and inspiring project called ‘Being Peace’, run by the equally unique and inspiring organisation Sanghaseva.

Sarah accompanied Sanghaseva on their latest Being Peace retreat, a highly structured yet incredibly flexible journey through the conflict that takes in a wide range of viewpoints, including Palestinian villagers and farmers, Israeli Defence Force soldiers, former Palestinian resistance fighters, Jewish settlers, Israeli residents and just a small number of the many people from a diverse range of organisations working for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
