As an active participant in LfA's events, I've noticed ample networking opportunities, like dinners with firms such as HSF and dedicated events like Asia Opportunities Day. However, while these events are invaluable for professional development, there's room to strengthen the sense of community within our society and foster collaboration with other student groups across UCL. With a focus on enhancing cohesion and engagement among members, I am committed to introducing initiatives that bring our community closer together and facilitate meaningful connections beyond professional settings. 

Here are the initiatives I plan to implement as Events Officer: 

1. Organize regular gatherings like social mixers and game nights to foster personal connections among members.

  2. Partner with other UCL societies to host joint workshops and cultural events, broadening our members' perspectives.

  3. Establish a mentorship scheme where senior members support newer ones, fostering camaraderie and offering academic and professional guidance.

  4. Develop virtual activities like coffee chats and discussion forums to keep members connected outside of physical events.

  5.  Implement a system for members to provide input and suggestions, ensuring our events cater to diverse interests and preferences.

Through these initiatives, I aim to create a vibrant, inclusive community within LfA, empowering members to thrive personally and professionally.
