It's been a couple of months that my new role as Black and Minority Ethnic officer officially began. Much has happened since then (mainly inside my head!) that I want to tell you about: I developed ideas on how to improve the multicultural education and social integration on our campus, I discussed with and met new people, I am networking to bring inspirational BME people on campus. Last week was executive training and it helped me get a clearer idea about what I want to be campaigning and working on and what I want to see happen by the end of this year. I learned a lot about cooperation and planning work with other officers and societies. Before that I went to a really insightful and lovely event organised at UCL, to support and inform BME officers across the UK.
The main thing I am doing now is working on organising events for Black History Month. I wrote an article for the Orbital and here it is! "BLACK HISTORY MONTH: IS IT ENOUGH?" is the title, find it on this blog :).
I want to promote discussion on BME topics throughout the year, so I will keep you posted on the evolution :).
I hope you enjoy the article and you can find me on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BMERHUL and Twitter:https://twitter.com/SurhulBME if you'd like to voice your opinion!
