Elected

Hey! I'm Angelina, a first-year International Social and Political Studies student. As a member of Asiatic Affairs, I've really enjoyed meeting new people and participating in the various events. I'm running for Publications Officer because I think Asiatic Affairs is a great platform to share opinions regarding this region. I also see the society as an opportunity to form a community of people with this shared interest!.

If I am elected, I hope to:

1. Continue publishing submitted work on the Asiatic Affairs website 

2. Spread greater awareness about our website and increase interest in publishing work through creating weekly/monthly writing prompts/topics

3. Reviving the Asiatic Affairs Podcast, hopefully inviting special guest speakers to feature on the Podcast!

4. Create opportunities for people who have an interest in editing work 

5. Work to publish the Asiatic Affairs Journal next year!

Personally, I have written for Narrative Collections, a youth-led platform, and the UCL Film & TV Society Journal. I see how meaningful writing can be — a way to spark greater awareness and further conversation. I hope that to achieve that together in Asiatic Affairs!
