Amal Allouch

I graduated from Christian-Albrechts-University in Kiel, Germany, with a Bachelor of Arts in History, Hispanic Studies, Philosophy and Secondary Education. I am just finishing my Master of Education at the same university. During my bachelor's, I studied at the Universidad de Granada in Spain and during my master's at the Università di Bologna in Italy. My personal experience with the lack of social responsibility in Europe inspired me to participate in voluntary work outside the university. I founded the Young Feminist Alliance (Junges Feministsiches Bündnis), I was Speaker for Feminism and Antiracism and Member of the General Student Committee of Christian-Albrechts University; I am a Co-organiser and leader of the project "My Story, your story, our future", organising workshops in schools on racism,
discrimination and feminism. Furthermore, I am a scholarship holder from the DAAD and Avicenna-Studienwerk e.V. Since the beginning of my studies, I started to look more into the South European and North African areas and their relations. I wanted to understand how societies changed due to colonialism and thus also see what kind of societies existed previously. During my studies at Oxford, I seek to investigate the discrimination and oppression of the rights of indigenous people in their language and culture in North Africa caused by colonialism and the reconstruction or new beginning of nation-building.
