Möt Daisy Bispo och Teagan Hood, avgångsstudenter från Peace fellow klass XXIII

Hear them both speak about their views concerning the two years of master studies in Uppsala and their coming plans for the future now that the studies at Uppsala university is coming to an end.

Daisy has, prior to coming to Sweden, a Bachelor’s in International Relations from Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, where she also worked as a researcher and teaching assistant. She also holds a specialization certificate in Peace Research certification from the University of Oslo. Before joining Uppsala University, she volunteered with organizations like the Brazilian Red Cross and worked as a Protection Assistant at the Assistance Program for Refugee and Asylum Seekers (PARES Caritas).

Teagan holds a Bachelor of Arts in Peace and Conflict Studies and International Relations, and a Bachelor of Social Sciences in International Development, both from the University of Queensland in Australia. Prior to her studies at Uppsala University, she had been working for twelve years in international development across Australia and the Asia-Pacific region, including in Indonesia, Vietnam, and Samoa. Her main area of expertise was at that time analysing systems to identify ways to address root causes of inequity while working with communities and governments to prepare for future challenges.
