Dr José Ramos-Horta
His Excellency Dr José Ramos-Horta is the former President of Timor-Leste (East Timor) (2007-2012) and also served as Prime Minister (2006-2007), Foreign Minister (2002-2006) and Cabinet Member in the United Nations Transition Administration for East Timor (UNTAET) (2000-2002). He was co-awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1996 in recognition for his work towards a just and peaceful solution to the conflict in East Timor. Dr Ramos-Horta lived in exile for 24 years following the Indonesian invasion of East Timor in 1975 and represented the East Timor independence movement at the United Nations and around the world. Following independence in 1999, he was finally able to return to Timor-Leste and has played a pivotal role in peace-building and poverty reduction in the small, conflict-torn nation. Since leaving office, Dr Ramos-Horta has continued to work on a number of high-level peace-building and human rights projects around the world including as the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General to Guinea-Bissau (2012-2014), a Vice-Chairman of the Asian Peace and Reconciliation Council and a Co-Chair of the Independent Commission on Multilateralism.
