MSC PUBLIC FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, SOAS
The aim of my Masters is to understand innovative approaches towards managing public finances both at a local and national level.
With this Scholarship, I also aim to develop the skills and processes required to enable a more collaborative, grassroots-resident led approach to budget setting in local councils and public institutions. In particular, I would like to engage hard to reach demographics within the Muslim community.
In my spare time, I love reading poetry and bike riding, in addition to diligently performing my responsibilities as an elected Councillor in East London.
