Diversity Days 2022
Students participated in an interactive workshop delivered by the engineering department, giving young people a hands-on experience of what studying Engineering looks like. After lunch, students were given a tour of the campus before getting the chance to ask COSARAF scholars questions on what the scholarship is, what university life is like, and the steps needed to take to apply to universities.
We would like to thank COSARAF for making this Diversity Day possible, as well as the University of Warwick for hosting us and sharing their expertise at this highly engaging Diversity Day.

To begin the day, students took part in a ‘speed dating’ session with a number of BT Sports employees to learn about the number of careers within sports broadcasting. Students had the chance to speak to Broadcasting Engineers, Head of PR, and Programme Writers. This was then followed by a tour of the studio. In the afternoon, students were split into two groups with one group building a studio, and the other creating a programme concept. The two groups then came together at the end to produce their own tv programme, recorded and presented by students.

To begin the day, students were welcomed with a talk from a Yeoman Warder in front of the Raven enclosure. Students were given a historical overview of the Tower, before getting a lesson on public speaking. Students enjoyed a visit to the Jewel House where the Crown Jewels are kept.
Visiting the Crown Jewels helped students with their next activity which was to plan and deliver an alternative tour of the Tower, paying particular attention to Britain’s colonial past and how the tour would best reflect this. After lunch, students listened to the different career paths Historic Royal Palaces have to offer. The Q&A session involved curators, the Head of IT, conservationists, and the chief exhibitor.

On Thursday 13th January, Naz Legacy hosted its first Diversity Day of 2022. Over 250 students from across England took part in a virtual event with ITN News. The session provided a space for a diverse group of young people to explore the various pathways into media & journalism and the variety of roles available within the sector and increase diversity in the field.
Students participated in an activity set by Channel 5 news correspondent Simon Vigar, whereby they were given the opportunity to report on a breaking news story. Pupils had to decide what they needed to include in preparing to report the story, and how they were going to cover the story. This was followed up by a very interactive session, delivered by the Award-winning senior producer at ITN Roohi Hasan, providing students with hints and tips on how to write a competitive job application when applying to work in the media industry. To end the session, students were given the opportunity to engage in a Q&A session with leading experts at ITN.
We would like to thank ITN for joining us and sharing their expertise at this highly engaging Diversity Day.
