Asiatic Affairs Society: Marketing Director

I would like to nominate myself as marketing director of Asiatic Affairs for several reasons. My commitment to this cause has been evident through my active involvement in various initiatives over the past several years.

During my high school years, I took the initiative to found a non-profit organization aimed at addressing the growing lack of educational opportunities for students in Asia. I worked closely with a local orphanage to develop English language programs and public affairs courses tailored to engage young students. This experience not only underscored the importance of educational outreach but also ignited my passion for fostering a closely knit community dedicated to elevating awareness of international affairs, particularly those concerning Asia.

If appointed as Marketing Director of Asiatic Affairs, I am resolute in my commitment to leveraging experience to  promote the organization's publications through expanded channels. Drawing upon my background in grassroots organizing and educational outreach, I aim to devise innovative marketing strategies that will enhance the visibility and reach of Asiatic Affairs' publications, such as social media and content marketing. Furthermore, I am eager to collaborate with like-minded individuals to cultivate an engaged readership base, thereby amplifying the impact of our advocacy efforts on Asian affairs.

Hi everyone, I'm Ralf and I'm a first year ISPS student specialising in Anthropology and Mandarin.

By standing for the position of Marketing Director, I hope to increase interest in Asiatic Affairs and the work of the society across UCL. By collaborating with societies and departments to publicise our work, I aim to bring new perspectives into the society to expand the subject and geographical areas covered in publications. UCL's rich pool of talent and diverse interests provides an excellent basis for wider participation, both in terms of readership and writers, that can bolster a general interest in the relatively underrepresented field of Asian Studies.

Furthermore, I wish to continue the building up of the society's social media presence. Enhancing our reputation and connecting with wider audiences provides us with an excellent opportunity to distribute the hard work of the society across audiences greater than UCL. Campaigns to draw attention to specific themes, in collaboration with other universities across London, will allow for the creation of a space where new ideas can flourish and writers can thrive.

Above all, I hope to turn my enthusiasm for Asiatic affairs into excellent outcomes for the society and wider field of study. The potential of the society is limitless, and I would love to contribute to its success.

Thank you for your time, and I hope you consider voting for me.
