- It Happens Here is a society that raises awareness about sexual assault, violence and harassment and provides support to survivors. - My role involves leading the exco in spearheading activities that raise awareness on sexual assault and providing platforms and resources to assist and support survivors and students - As the president of a previously inactive society, I had to put in the grunt work of blazing a trail and rebuilding the society's activities and rapport without a precedent to follow.

The editorial board also edits, publishes and submits: 1) policy proposals to KCL Student Union 2) policy proposals pertaining to UK/International Policies 3) academic journal articles; and 4) poetry submissions for survivors and allies. - Lastly, with the help of my committee, we are also piloting a website for the society to include contents from the editorial board, provide support information and campaign highlights.
