Magiarí Díaz Díaz

Maya is a peace consultant and facilitator with a background in psychology, Nonviolent Communication (NVC), and grassroots peace activism. She holds an MA in Peace and Conflict Studies and an MSc in Psychology.

She worked with conflict-affected communities in Venezuela, leading peace initiatives grounded in nonviolent action and the expressive arts. As an NVC trainer with wide experience across the Americas, she creates supportive, inclusive and engaging learning environments.

She currently works as an interpreter in healthcare and social services, supporting refugees, asylum seekers, and other vulnerable migrants in the UK. Her drive comes from her own journey of trauma recovery, which fuels her dedication to trauma-informed peacebuilding and to helping peace practitioners sustain their wellbeing while doing demanding, heart-centered work.
