Maha Sardar, a human rights barrister at Garden Court Chambers, London, has been working in the field of immigration, asylum and human rights for over a decade. She has worked with various human rights charities such as Refugee and Migrant Justice, Reprieve, Liberty and the UNHCR in Istanbul. A strong advocate for social change, she represents some of the most vulnerable people in society: refugees, unaccompanied minors, victims of torture and trafficking. She developed an app – ‘Belong’ – that provides tools and information, contacts and connections, that enable refugees to become fully functioning members of society and provide a sense of belonging in their new home. She is interested in developing a legal framework that enables refugees and marginalised people to successfully navigate postnormal times.
