Make me an architect! =)



Help me to be the best architect I can be! =D

I'm really excited the nice people at Educating Beyond Borders have decided to help international students with access to funds if we need legal advice while we study.

I'm very grateful they've decided to respond to my need for help. I'm running out of time to speak with the Human Rights barrister. I've got to raise £4000 to get the legal advice I need about completing  my training. I've wanted to be an architect since I was 11 years old. Architecture means alot to me and I really want to learn how to do it well. Infact, I enjoyed doing Parts 1 and 2 of the architecture course and I got top honours both times to boot!

I want to be sure I've got a "licence to build" and not one "to kill". I've always known the best architects understand how building components go together to make uplifting spaces that are beautiful. I also know it's more important but incredibly difficult to translate a design idea from a beautiful 2D visualisation into a building which meets user needs, is within the client's budget AND ... a pretty safe bet of not falling down (or melting cars ...)

That's why I'm really looking forward to getting some quality practical experience under my belt. To do this, I need legal advice about the best way to get the practical experience I need to be a "safe pair of hands".

So if you believe in:
equality
diversity
women in construction
empowering women

then make my day, click this link, and treat yourself to one of the perks we've prepared for you as a great big thank you for giving me the incredible opportunity of the chance to improve my architectural abilities!

Be my friend and help to make sure that I have the best chance possible not to be one of those architects who design bad buildings.

Please give generously and let's make an architect! =)

Educating Beyond Borders: Guest blog by Voice of Salam - Would you pay tens of thousands of...

Pinned to Brainfood on Pinterest: Guest blog by Voice of Salam - Would you pay tens of thousands of pounds for an incomplete degree? We're delighted by the growing media interest in the plight of international students in the UK.Click this link to read the excellent article by the blogger Elizabeth on her blog the Voice of Salam. Please would you read this article and ask yourself this very tough question: what would you do if you'd spend 200000 to learn a highly specialist subject in a foreign country. Then find out you couldn't learn all the skills and subject matter;only towards the end of your degree. After you'd spent alot of time and alot of money working towards your professional qualification. How would you feel?What would you do? Would you want others to help you get justice? Maybe these questions might be quite challenging in the current context of the immigration debate in the UK. Ponder these questions until the next guest blog posts from Media Activist Jay Baker are published.
