CSIE is excited to welcome two new faces to the team! Asha Ambasna and Sofie Kwiatkowski are both students at the University of Bristol and will be joining us for the next month to work on our Equality Hub project.

Asha has just finished her BA in History at the University of Bristol, and will be embarking on an MSc in International Development in September. Her experience as a young carer has helped to shape her understanding of inclusivity issues and drives her commitment to overcome exclusion. Asha has always been vocal about issues of inequality, both in her academic work and in her personal life, so she is thrilled to be able to commit this enthusiasm to a great organisation. She hopes to go on to work for an NGO and knows that CSIE will provide amazing insight and experience in this sector.

Sofie has just finished her second year studying Politics and International Relations at Bristol. She has long had an interest in increasing inclusion in education, and has previously volunteered as a tutor with Student Action for Refugees (STAR). Sofie is really excited to help the charity in any way she can, and sees CSIE as a brilliant charity with an important cause behind it.

Both Asha and Sofie hope to contribute to the great work being done by CSIE, especially on the Online Equality Hub which they feel will massively increase the reach and accessibility of CSIE around the world, and be a truly valuable resource.

We are thrilled to start working with Asha and Sofie, and are hugely grateful for all the work they are doing for CSIE.
