Aspiring lawyer with a focus on human rights and legal research.
What I'm looking for
I am an aspiring lawyer currently pursuing my Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) at the University of London International Programmes. My academic journey has been marked by a strong commitment to understanding and advocating for human rights, as evidenced by my dissertation on Pakistan's compliance with international human rights obligations regarding sexual violence.
Throughout my education, I have gained practical experience through internships at the Ran’aa Child Welfare Foundation and the Federal Ombudsperson Secretariat for Protection Against Harassment (FOSPAH), where I conducted legal research. My extracurricular activities, including winning a debate competition, reflect my dedication to honing my communication and advocacy skills.
