Candidate for the position of International Students' Network Lead

BENJAMIN OLUWASEYI LAWAL

I am excited to announce my candidacy for the role of International Network Lead, a position I am passionate about for several reasons. My desire to run stems from my deep commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment where international students feel welcomed, connected, and supported. As a student with a broad perspective on the challenges and opportunities that come with studying in a global context, I am driven by the belief that we can bridge cultural gaps, enhance our academic experiences, and create lasting networks of collaboration and friendship.

I would make an excellent International Network Lead because I bring a blend of strong interpersonal skills, leadership experience, and a genuine passion for building communities. Having worked in both educational and professional environments where teamwork, communication, and problem-solving are crucial, I have developed the ability to understand and address the unique needs of individuals from different backgrounds. My leadership style is inclusive and collaborative, ensuring that everyone feels heard and valued.

If elected, my primary focus will be to ensure that all international students have a voice and feel empowered to participate in our school’s activities. I will organize cultural exchange events, mentorship programs, and workshops to help both international and local students build meaningful connections. Additionally, I plan to advocate for more resources and support systems that cater specifically to the challenges international students face, whether they be academic, social, or personal.

Why should you vote for me? Because I am committed to making a tangible difference. I will not only bring energy and enthusiasm to the role but also a clear plan for how we can make the international student experience more enriching for everyone. I believe that diversity is our strength, and by working together, we can create a network that benefits the entire school community.

Let’s build bridges, celebrate diversity, and strengthen our global connections. Together, we can make our school an even more vibrant, inclusive, and globally connected place. I ask for your vote to serve as your International Network Lead, and I promise to work tirelessly to achieve these goals.

Thank you for your support!
