MPHIL SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, WOLFSON COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

Allah created a perfectly balanced world on the basis of sustainability and circularity, and entrusted humans with this ‘Amanah’ – entrusted property. Therefore, the duty of care towards our planet and the environment is a sacred responsibility according to our faith.

Guided by this profound sense of responsibility rooted in our faith, I aim to pursue a path where I can contribute to the development and implementation of practical and comprehensive policies addressing the urgent need of tackling climate change and promoting sustainable practices.

Pursuing this Masters will equip me with the expertise necessary to engage in meaningful dialogues aimed at shaping a more inclusive and sustainable future.

I am particularly motivated to enhance British Muslim representation in sustainability discussions and policy-making, ensuring our community’s unique perspectives are heard and considered.
