Desmond Tutu like many other Peacekeepers has been

dedicated to the quest for peace nearly all of his life.

Much has been written about his fight against South African apartheid,

which gave the world a glimpse into the daily struggles

facing the millions in Africa with no voice.

This 1999 in-depth interview with then Archbishop Tutu reveals much about the

depth of sincerity of the man in his quest for Peace.

 

Tutu is a strong supporter of Habitat for Humanity in South Africa

which has built over 1800 homes since 1996.

Desmond Tutu was awarded the Nobel Peace prize in 1984.
