MA CULTURE, DIASPORA AND ETHNICITY, BIRKBECK UNIVERSITY OF LONDON

As a Black British revert Muslim, I've experienced first-hand the lack of representation and misconceptions within society. My own professional journey has revealed to me these stark inequalities and biases, motivating me to establish Diversify, an agency dedicated to fostering diversity in professional settings, particularly for Muslims and minority individuals.

My pursuit of a master's degree arises from a deep sense of responsibility. I aim to gain the knowledge and skills to advocate for Muslim representation in civil society and to academically challenge current perceptions and narratives surrounding British Muslim communities.

This program will deepen my understanding of systemic inequalities, enabling me to implement Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion solutions. I aspire to become a recognised authority and role model for younger Muslims. This program will also serve as the foundation for further academic pursuits.
