Voices on Martin
“Martin is knowledgeable and committed, as an activist and as a facilitator, and I am grateful that he chooses to use his skills and compassion for the benefit of the animal rights movement!”
Dr. Melanie Joy, author of Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs and Wear Cows, and founder and president of Beyond Carnism. Melanie co-facilitated a vegan advocacy training with Martin in Berlin in June 2015.
“Martin is a long-distance runner for disarmament, nonviolence and peace. What a joy for the animal rights movement that he has joined our ranks! Having lived with him for six years, including a couple of weeks as his cellmate, I know what a hardworking and efficient activist he is.”
Pelle Strindlund, author and animal rights activists since the mid-90s. He contributed with a chapter in the book In defense of animals (red. Peter Singer)
“Martin is one of the most caring and straight-thinking co-facilitators I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He is thorough and thoughtful, calm under pressure and quick thinking on his feet.
Denise Drake, human rights activist and a full-time nonviolence facilitator. Denise has co-facilitated 10-day intensive training of trainers in nonviolence together with Martin in South Sudan 2013-2015.
“Martin’s lectures and experiences have been invaluable in our work to widen the perspective of other animals and their role in the human society and culture.”
Tobias Linné, associate professor at Lund University and lecturer at the Critical Animal Studies course at Lund University. Tobias has invited Martin to hold lectures and workshops at his courses.
