Sarah has a background in social policy, and is interested in labour protections and social welfare. She enjoys the poetry (but also the gospel heart!) of the Psalms and exploring how her faith informs political philosophy. She currently works for the government in Singapore.

Sophia is currently working in the field of international peace and security within the UN system. Having completed her undergraduate studies in psychology and philosophy before pursuing a master’s in public policy, she believes synthesising diverse perspectives brings us to a fuller, richer understanding of the human condition. She moved to New York in 2023, having previously lived in Beijing, Oxford and Singapore. Here, she has been interested in exploring how faith intersects culture, work, politics, relationships, and more.

Rachael is a 2nd year PhD student in Geography and the Environment at the University of Oxford. Her research interests are at the intersection of political and cultural geography, and her current project (funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council) adopts archival and ethnographic research methods to explore how Indigenous communities participate in Taiwan’s international cultural diplomacy.

Ilona graduated from the University of Oxford in 2021 with a BA in History and German, having specialised in both Asian history and mediaeval German literature.

She likes to test out her experiments on her husband Tom, be they food, teaching or writing related.
