  • London School of Economics: living through BREXIT

    My decision to do the summer school program at the London School of Economics and Political Science was one of a personal challenge.

  • Over the summer break of 2014 I headed to Phnom Penh for a three month internship at the Extraordinary Chambers of the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC). This special Cambodian Court, with the assistance of the United Nations, has been charged with ascertaining the truth behind the alleged crimes committed during the Khmer Rouge regime. When…
