Christina Gibb

Christina Gibb (née Godfrey; 6 August 1929 – 18 March 2018) was a New Zealand peace activist and environmental advocate.

Biography Gibb was born Christina Godfrey on 6 August 1929 in Sevenoaks, Kent, England, the third daughter of British naval intelligence officer (and "M" prototype) John Henry Godfrey and Margaret Godfrey (née Hope).

Gibb became a naturalised New Zealand citizen in 1980. Gibb spent years restoring an area of native bush on her property in the Dunedin suburb of Ravensbourne, placing a Queen Elizabeth II National Trust covenant on the forest. She was a proponent, and ultimately an adherent, of natural burial.

In 2004, Gibb travelled to Hebron and worked with people from Israeli, Palestinian and international peace and human rights organisations as part of the Christian Peacemaker Teams. From 2004 to 2006, she wrote articles for the Otago Daily Times newspaper's weekly World Focus supplement, describing her work in Hebron.
