Bianca Bridger

Bianca is a final year political science student at the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand. Born in South Africa and raised in New Zealand, her multicultural background as well as her keen interest in conflict politics and history has led her to work with the New Zealand Red Cross to facilitate refugee resettlement. Her academic focus on the politics of the Arabian Peninsula has enabled her to receive certification in international protocol and Middle Eastern diplomacy from the Brussels-based ISPD+ Innovation in Diplomacy institute.
