In this talk, we listened to the ideas presented by Zubeda Limbada and Malik Harrison from ConnectFutures.
Zubeda Limbada is a founding director of ConnectFutures CIC, a social enterprise working with young people to build their skills and confidence to navigate exploitation, hate, extremism and disinformation. She previously worked for over 15 years in the public sector as a senior member in a wide variety of local, national and pan-European policy-orientated projects on topics such as extremism, inequalities and leadership innovation.
Zubeda believes in a philosophy of "Honesty, integrity and striving to leave the world in a better place than before."
Malik is a professional hip-hop artist, as lyricist and MC with MD7, and a solo career that has seen him touring with artists including Jay-Z, Mark Ronson, Professor Green and Wiley. Malik is a highly skilled facilitator, performer and public speaker, using his skills to work through music and spoken word therapeutically. He has worked with at risk young people within secure units and other institutions for over 10 years. His work with ConnectFutures includes national delivery for our BRAVE, Racial Justice, Contextual Safeguarding and Fake News programmes in targeted and assembly formats with a specialism in PRUs and SEND schools, large scale workshops, mentoring and 1-2-1s.
Malik believes in the philosophy “No culture has a monopoly on wisdom, no culture embodies all the great values, and therefore each culture has a great deal to learn from others, through dialogue.”
