Zeinab Badawi talks about her life, her work, and returning to SOAS as President over 30 years since receiving a distinction for her Masters

Welcome

Shona Aitken, Head of Advancement

Welcome to issue two of the new SOAS World. In this quarter’s magazine you will find an interview with SOAS alumna and President, Zeinab Badawi, along with Professor Awino Okech speaking about the foundation of the Feminist Centre for Racial Justice. There’s also an article on the timely and crucial subject of the environment and how SOAS is playing its part.

Alongside the articles, you’ll find our usual mix of events, alumni benefits, and information to help you keep in touch with what’s going on. I hope you enjoy SOAS World, and if you have any feedback, please get in touch with our friendly Alumni Engagement team.
