Outreach - Summer 2025

Aliya Badr is an Outreach Intern for the Summer 2025 session at CAIR-Chicago. She is currently studying Political Science with a minor in Arabic at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Her passion for advocacy, representation, and civil rights led her to join CAIR’s mission of empowering and educating underrepresented voices.

Aliya has explored these interests through writing, creative projects, and community-focused work on campus. She’s committed to creating space for stories that are often overlooked and believes deeply in building a more just and inclusive society. In her free time, she enjoys playing tennis and is currently learning to play the keyboard.
