Mr and Mrs Abu Nahl, who are both Cypriot Nationals, were made members of the Chancellors Court of Benefactors at Oxford University last year have contributed to a new law faculty at the University specialising in Human rights; rights that are close to Mr Abu Nahl’s heart. At the gallery opening, Mr. Abu Nahl recalled the day he and his wife were inducted to the Oxford University Chancellor's Court of Benefactors:
“As a former refugee, issues relating to education, the rule of law and principles of human rights are important to me. When I was invited to donate to the Bonavero Institute of Human Rights, I gratefully accepted. The institute provides a facility for education, research and scholarship in human rights law and was opened by the late Kofi Annan. Our induction and recognition of our contribution was a very special day for my wife and I – as is today.”
