ABOUT
Hi, I’m Georgia, currently a Programme Management Officer by profession and academically trained in literature and history. In 2018 I graduated from the University of Liverpool with a BA (Hons) English degree, specialising in 20th and 21st century women’s writing. In 2020 I completed an MA in Social History of Art at the University of Leeds where my dissertation explored Ariella Azoulay’s theory of ‘watching’ photographs to further understand how citizens engage with photographs of Syrian refugees in the media.
Throughout and alongside my Master’s degree, I developed a deep interest in Middle Eastern history, culture and politics and am passionate about challenging common stereotypes and misconceptions about the MENA region. This led me to intern for two months with Pink Jinn and create MENAb00ks. MENAb00ks is where I explore my passion for literature about the MENA region. In my free time I explore my interests in History, International Relations and Global Ethics and will soon use this website to write in these fields.
I have also written for charities and NGOs including Oxfam and The Circle NGO on ethical concerns regarding fast fashion. My Portfolio includes some articles no longer available to view, however the titles give a sense of my work.
Thank you for visiting. If you would like to get in touch, please contact me through the MENAb00ks Instagram page or menab00ksreview@gmail.com.
