ABDIRASHID FIDOW

MA CONFLICT RESOLUTION, KING'S COLLEGE LONDON

I have over 15 years' experience working in civil society, the non-profit space and have an in-depth understanding of minority issues.

This course will further my knowledge on ethno-national conflict regulation, peace processes, third party mediation and truth and reconciliation processes. I am particularly interested in the causes, consequences and outcomes of national, ethnic and religious conflicts.

This course will enable me to make a positive impact to the needs and aspirations of British Muslims who are underrepresented in politics and many other areas of public life which has caused significant long-term structural and systemic inequities and inequalities.

With my combined experience of conflict, professional work on a grassroots level and academic background, I will commit to using my education and experience to champion for the betterment of the British Muslim community and ensure they are always represented and heard.
