 About Me |
I am a 24 year old Master of Global Studies student, dedicated to global social justice. I love traveling and meeting new people. I am currently writing my dissertation on human rights violations in relation to global mega-events (such as the Olympics). I am interested in development-based-displacement and continue to find that human rights frameworks are being used as "speech-acts" by national governments and actually contributing to the marginalization of their most vulnerable populations. I hope to bring more awareness to the issue of global mega-events and displacement of people both in developed countries (specifically Canada) and developing countries (specifically India) and ultimately lobby for MORE accountability and transparency in mega-event staging and development, so that vulnerable populations will not continuously come second to development.
