A British Bangladeshi: Then and Now

CU BanglaSoc wishes to celebrate this momentous year of the 50th Anniversary of Bangladesh’s Independence by addressing the significant strides made so far by Bangladeshis around the world and to cast an eye to the next 50 years to consider what the future holds for Bangladesh and its diaspora. We are therefore extremely honoured to host a true pioneer in breaking barriers in the world of politics – Rushanara Ali MP. Speaking on the theme of ‘A British Bangladeshi: Then and Now’ we look forward to learning about Ms Ali’s experiences so far as an MP, in International Development, Further Education, Social Innovation and her wider perspectives about being a British Bangladeshi, both in the years past and what the future holds for the community. We are sure it will be a very insightful evening – looking forward to hosting you all soon!
