I really appreciate the engaging in different, like, student discussions.

What are your goals after you graduate from university?

My biggest dream, actually, I was born as a refugee, Palestinian refugee, and I could never be returned to my own country. At the same time, I want to stand for vulnerable groups and for a just and a ferior world that could benefit all world citizen.
