Member Profile: Saniya Ghaledar

(She/Her)

Saniya works as a facilitator and administrator for an inclusive leadership team. She holds an Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Certificate from UBC and is currently working towards completing a Women’s and Gender Studies degree. She is also certified to deliver Human Rights advocacy training through the John Humphrey Centre for Peace and Human Rights.  Her dedication to learning goes back to her need and desire to support her community and to infuse all that she does with the knowledge she acquires. 

Saniya loves serving her community through WAVE. She is also the Founder of a project called She Said (Instagram: @1800shesaid and on LinkedIn). Saniya and her team are working on collecting the stories and advice from women across the country, and from small pockets across the globe, to help combat gender parity issues that were highlighted in the most recent UN Women Gender Snapshot reports. They hope to use the data collected to create educational materials to help women and girls from equity-deserving communities.
