Friday 11th April

For 16 – 26 year olds
Campus Friday Circle presents

Healing and Trauma Informed Activism

With Dr Sara Saigol

When it comes to activist spaces, we can burnout due to the amount of work and the political climate we face.

Let’s discuss:
* How stress impacts us?
* How do care/respect avoid burnout?
Building organisational cultures so we find joy in the work

A must for anyone working in the activist space

The Campus Friday Circle is a friendly, very interactive, fun and inspiring circle that takes place online on alternate Friday evenings.

After a week of school/university, these circles are a wonderful way for the heart to be inspired, to engage in some great discussions and to make new friendships!

The circle has a youth planning team who meet to devise a year plan that is inspiring, relevant and holistic.

Topics touch on:

  • Faith based matters that nurture the heart and soul, including tafseer, seerah and more
  • Current Affairs in which news stories are presented and discussed
  • Contemporary Issues
  • Life Skills

Campus members who are studying or working often lead these circles to inspire the younger cohort and share their experiences of setting up and managing their institutional Islamic Societies.

If you are 16-26 years old, please do join by emailing [email protected]

Examples of topics covered in the Friday Circle include:

  • The Miracle of The Quran
  • The Palestine Crisis
  • Capitol Hill- politics and justice
  • Getting to know Prophet Muhammad (saw)
  • Gender Ethics, Feminism
  • Purification of The Heart, Racism
  • Mental Health
  • LGBTQ+
  • The Meaning of Salah,
  • Knowing Yourself: self esteem, confidence and boundary setting
  • Muslims in India
  • …and much much more!
