Hi I’m Zaara, and I love Geography, especially events centred around Geography! I am nominating myself as Events Director this year because I believe I have several new ideas and insights that I will bring to the table, allowing a more inclusive, active, and enjoyable society.
As a first year member of Geogsoc, I witnessed the diverse range of events hosted and wanted to be a part of this process as I share a love for Geography and event planning. Some would say that being an extensive planner can be scary but I for one love having a good event to plan!
My experience with being a leading member of the student council in my previous school and Essay Club president during sixth form meant that I was often involved with leading, planning, and carrying out events, either within the school community or at times for the general public. Therefore, I am well equipped to handle the logistics and pressure of such a role and am excited to show you what I have in mind.
Some ideas I have include, continuing the current bi-monthly panel sessions with academics in this field, introducing more debates, game nights, and monthly picnics because who doesn’t love some nice company, weather & food?
