I learnt human rights law, on the international, European and UK level. I am able to apply the knowledge to a vast majority of areas that I work in. This includes women, children, refugees and migrants and survivors of torture among others. It has sharpened my capacity as an activist in advocating for such causes. I undertook a research project on the issues of intersectionality that women face in the workplace, I not only researched but also proposed actions that could be taken to ensure that women do not experience this and other types of discrimination in the workplace.
