Independent (Aya Alswehli)

My name is Aya Swehli. I descend from a political family who has long fought for the freedom and democracy of its nation, Libya. What I am to accomplish through this application, is to lead the newly found Libyan chapter. To use my network from NGO to government to implant the United Nations sustainable development plan, and help push Libya on the world stage, through change that came from within, from the normal individual. I pursue my bachelor degree in politics and international relations in Turkiye, and work in a research center to amplify my knowledge of peace building and political strategies. At the same time, I have started with Catalyst around a month ago as an intern, and found that in order to speak with authority to the decision makers in Libya, build an effective team, and help boost the project through my networks, membership works better than my professional temporary internship statue.

I look forward to inspire my community, from children to youth, women and decision makers to be part of a team that would bring justice in Libya. As a country that has been colonized through much of its history, making our own fair system and awareness has been always on a jeopardized development. I wish to share the knowledge I have acquired through my study at a German school, then moving to London then to Ankara, to cause my community to think from different perspective.
