Curriculum vitae
I was born in a village called Ajerbeb 21 km east of Keren town in the former Senhit (or Bogos) area, Eritrea. The
youngest in a family of six children – Deru, Ametehans (+2012), Letehans, Tisnela (or Wajjo), Awsana,, I did my
starter elementary training in the same village when the Catholic Church of the Diocese of Asmara open a school in
1960 opened up for the first time by the Keren Catholic sub-diocese and later transferred to another more broader and
central district school called Besigdira Primary School between 1962 to 1968 and participated with other seven pupils
in the 6th Grade General Examination, the first and last group to represent Besikdira school in the era. Besikdira village
and it environs were later the target of the Ethiopian military and 118 of the inhabitants were massacred down inside a
mosque in November 30 1970. The village was destroyed and Besikdira school was closed for almost two decades
until it was rebuilt by the Italian-based Aid organization called Tukuul in 2004. In October 1968, Thereafter I entered
the Catholic minor Seminary in Keren town and studied the middle grades 7 to the 9th. I did my secondary studies at
the senior seminary at Asmara, Eritrea and graduated in 1977.
In October 1980 I left the seminary and got enrolled at Asmara University, Eritrea, and got a BA degree in
Management, with Great Distinction in July 1984). The Asmara University administration recruited for its teaching
staff and I taught Management and Organizations Studies between 1984 and 1990 at the same University. Then I
moved to Sweden (Fall, 1990) to pursue Graduate studies at Stockholm University and earned am International
Masterate in Social Sciences (June, 1993). I was soon enrolled at the Doctoral Study program between 1994 and 2000.
Then I got a PhD in Organizational and Management Studies (May, 2000). Since 2000, I have worked as a Lecturer

development resources accumulated between 2001 and to 2003, and the ENGIME scholarship
(See below) augmented resources to apply for EU-funded SUSDIV project
2002-2004.
EU-funded Research Group: I belonged to, and cooperated with, researchers from nine
European Universities, funded by the EU, International Research Network on Economic
Growth and Innovation in Multicultural Environments (ENGIME). The main aim of ENGIME
was to address the research community with the question of whether and how the diversity of
its cultures could be a source of competitiveness for its economy. I got funds to participate and
present my ongoing research on identity construction at work (Hamde, 2003) and the
governance of cultural diversity (Hamde, 2004). I also got the opportunity to be involved in the
application for funds from the EU - The Sixth Framework Program (see above). A revised
version of one of the conference papers was later on published as working paper in Milan
(Attachment 43). A journal publication (Hamde, 2007), and a chapter in an edited book
(Hamde, 2009) were the output from, this cooperation.
