I am Zia, a PHD Fellow in Communication, Media and Cultural Studies at Solent. I am also PHD students representative representing PGR on various administrative forums of the university like RDC and RKE. I have worked as a student member of the university standing panel for the validation of courses, and part of Inclusive Curriculum Project at Solent, providing the student's perspective in development of various courses and modules to make it more inclusive and accessible for the students. I have also worked as a Journalist, Rights Activist, Media Trainer and Academic before joining Solent. If you vote for me, I will represent you in the best possible way with full passion and enthusiasm, because for me every student matters and needs to be heard!
