About me

AGYA has transformed me from a scholar of Arabic Studies to an interdisciplinary scholar and citizen of the world.

My Commitment to AGYA

My advise to future AGYA members:

AGYA membership is a special opportunity to delve into new areas of research, explore related disciplines, and build bridges between institutions and cultures. Take this opportunity and enjoy it to the fullest.
