Works for the Trade Union Congress in Policy and Campaigns. Previously Amina has gained over four years’ experience working in the voluntary sector (KCSC), for a leading Think tank (IPPR), Trade Union (UNISON) and Healthcare NGO (Bliss). She campaigns on a personal and professional level and has contributed to policy development on various social issues around poverty and inequality, citizenship and industrial relations. She has a keen interest in developing progressive strategies to connect policy work with political activism. She intends that her PhD research on Muslim women’s faith will advance a greater understanding of the role of religious networks in the fulfillment, identity and agency of these women in British society.
