Hi there! I'm Ashiya, a member of the 2025 Leadership & Research Programme Cohort. I'm a student at the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, studying a double major in Peace, Conflict & Justice and Ethics, Society & Law! I look forward to contributing to and reading the incredible body of work on this platform. I love learning new things, exploring unfamiliar topics and interests, so please feel free to reach out to connect over research, passions, or curiosity anytime! :)

Hello! I am a multidisciplinary designer and have been with the Laidlaw Foundation for over five years, working to strengthen our global Scholar community and amplify the impact of our programmes.
My work lives somewhere between design, education, and anthropology, usually with sticky notes involved. I studied Human Sciences as an undergrad and recently finished a Master’s in Anthropology, both at UCL.
Born and raised in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Outside of work? Probably in the ceramics studio or a yoga class. Big fan of nature and very small bugs.

Hi! I'm Mariam, a Politics student at the LSE.

Hey! My name is Eleni, I’m 21 years old, and I come from the beautiful island of Cyprus. I study Law, but I'm not confined to its boundaries. I am passionate about post-colonial reconstruction and intersectional justice. Outside my studies, I find joy in quiet corners. Whether it's losing myself in a book (currently Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend), picking up drawing again, or experimenting with new recipes, I try to make everyday life a tad more mindful.
