Taaiba Khawaja

Taaiba Khawaja

Intern

Taaiba Khawaja is on her placement year at CFOR, intercalated with her studies for a BA (Hons) in Politics and International Studies at the University of Warwick. Her studies so far have led her to want an insight into the various ways in which history, among other factors, manifests itself in the sometimes, violent present and how violence and its impacts can be mitigated and prevented.

Outside her studies, Taaiba has experience of working on various projects including heading one to provide SMART technologies to a school in Pakistan, after it was attacked during a period of violence in 2014. She has also had the opportunity, to speak on various platforms, notably at the International Peace Conference in the Houses of Parliament.

In the future, Taaiba is hoping to study for an MA and work with IGOs, and NGOs in the areas of international development and collective security.
