HCRI PhD Candidate wins MDC Excellence Award for Internationalisation
Congratulations to HCRI鈥檚 Dr Rohi Jehan for winning a 2023 Manchester Doctoral College (MDC) Excellence Award for 鈥榗ontributions to internationalisation鈥�.
The winners of the MDC Excellence Awards 2023 were announced in June. These awards are given in recognition of the outstanding achievements of postgraduate researchers and supervisors.
The awards invite supervisors, PGR students and colleagues from all faculties to nominate individuals based on excellence in their research or their successes and contributions outside of their studies.
HCRI PhD Candidate Rohi Jehan won one of the awards for 鈥�Best Contribution to Internationalisation鈥�.
The MDC noted:
Rohi鈥檚 commitment and contribution to internationalisation are evident through her research focus, conference presentations, and ongoing engagement with scholars and activists around the world. Notably, earlier this year, she organized a hybrid workshop on 鈥楪ender, Nationalism, and Intersectional Theory: The Case of Kashmir鈥�. The workshop provided a unique opportunity for members of the University to engage with Kashmiri activists and academics, and offered a safe space to discuss gender politics, queer activism and their everyday experiences.
This is the tenth year of the awards, recognising contributions to research, the University and the wider community.
