  • UN Commission: I review gaps in education to achieve gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls.
  • UN "Safe Spaces Now": I work for inclusive and safe public spaces.
  • I volunteer to support sexual abuse survivors.
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

Be represented by a UN Women delegate deeply committed to promoting gender equality and empowering women!

My strong communication and negotiation skills make me well-equipped to represent UCL's women's diverse needs and interests. 

Every woman has the right to be safe, respected, and valued, and I will work tirelessly to make this a reality at UCL. With my qualifications and determination, I am confident I can make a real difference in this role.
