I hail from Yorkshire and have worked in policy and legal research in the developing world but am currently pursuing a Social Innovation Fellowship with Year Here (medium.com/here-and-now). I am an avid writer: muckrack.com/zahabiyahusain. I am passionate about issues relating to being a woman of colour, South Asian politics, mental health, the environment and social consciousness, culture and film. When not on a plane or a train I'm usually binge-watching Ali Plumb interviews and talking to myself about the Brontës. You can occasionally find me on Twitter @zazusebastian.
