Bangla Society: President

The Bangladeshi culture is a huge part of who I am and as an international student who has lived a larger part of my life in Bangladesh, I believe to have a deep-rooted understanding of our culture and heritage. Being the General Secretary of the UCL Bangla Society has immensely elevated my Uni experience this year and has given me ample experience in conducting events & meetings. It has developed in me a sense of belongingness and responsibility to carry forward the legacy that has been preserved so beautifully by previous committee members over many years. My primary motive will be to constitute well-being, inclusivity and friendship within the society. I want to make UCL BSOC your go-to-place, encourage connections among fellow Bengalis living far away from home and make ourselves accessible to people across all platforms. As the President this year, I would like to enrich and host the biggest flagship events and promote our exquisite culture through various mediums like music/dance performances, food carnivals, game nights & all things fun. I believe that my past leadership experiences have placed me in good position to exercise the required judgement in making executive decisions for the betterment of our society. I also wish to organize events like the boat party, Boishakhi Mela, BSOC ball, T20 World Cup/BPL viewings and unitedly enjoy the true spirit of being a Bangladeshi. All you have left to do is vote for me, Noorjahan Abdullah, as your President.
