Rizki Amalia Affiat

I had worked in and on Aceh issues for more than 10 years as an activist at LINA (Acheh Women’s League) - an organisation for political empowerment of women ex-combatants and affiliated to the Free Aceh Movement - and a researcher at ICAIOS (International Center for Aceh and Indian Ocean Studies) based in Banda Aceh. Currently, with my colleague Peny Rahmadhani, we co-founded and are the co-executive directors of Integral Knowledge Asia (https://ik-asia.org), a research organisation on the issues of gender and international development for the global South established in 2020. I am also the editor of Islambergerak, an online progressive Islam media in Indonesia, and a steering committee member of INFORM (Interfaith Network for the Rights of Migrants) based in Hong Kong.   I studied my Masters in development studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) University of London. In addition, I am a mom of five kids.

ABOUT US

Peace News Network aims to present stories from conflict zones we often don’t hear. Our stories are about people taking risks for peace. We highlight the opinions of ordinary people who want non-violent solutions to their political differences. Our stories aren't always about shootings and explosions, but they do tell you stories from war zones that hopefully go some way towards building trust and reconciliation.
