More about Reem

Reem was a founding member of Imara Advocacy, a youth-led initiative which worked closely with Flemington Kensington Community Legal Centre in the early 2010s in the early years of their flagship Police Accountability Project. In 2013, she led the design of Victoria’s first People’s Hearing, a youth and community voice project which managed to successfully counter the prevailing narrative at the time around young people’s experiences of discriminatory policing, and represented a turning point for the work of youth advocates in Victoria.
