About the speaker:

Fuad came to the UK as a refugee from Somalia with no English and went on to obtain a first-class degree in Engineering from Bath University followed by an MSc in Management from Lancaster Business School.

Setting up ACH in 2008 in order to support the resettlement of refugees like himself, he has built the organisation into one of the leading providers of integration support for excluded and marginalised people. It now spans across 3 cities, employs 90 people and works with 2500 individuals a year.

He has since graduated from executive Programmes at the Cranfield School of Management, Aston Business School, SAID business School of Oxford University, was a 2016 Clore Social Fellow for Refugee and Migrant communities, and is currently a 2018 Churchill Fellow. Together with his colleagues at ACH, Fuad has argued for a new approach to refugee assistance based on self-reliance rather than just humanitarianism.

Fuad has contributed to events in across the UK and Internationally over the past two years, speaking on the topic of refugee integration.
