MSC SOCIAL AND CULTURAL PSYCHOLOGY, LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS AND POLITICAL SCIENCE

Having completed a BSc in Experimental Psychology, I am eager to explore a psychological approach that is more aware of its own Eurocentricity and social and cultural relativity. I want to assist in the understanding of how people of colour are dehumanised and the effects of social inequality on cognition and mental wellbeing. I am interested in how this knowledge can inform a more socially aware mental health model. Ultimately, I envisage a mental health system that acknowledges all forms of structural discrimination, including anti-Muslim racism.
