Nimra Zahid · NorthamptonA researcher’s curiosity. An educator’s perspective.
My academic and teaching journey connects Lahore, Mandi Bahauddin, Islamabad and Northampton. Across those places, International Relations has given me a way to examine how regions connect, while teaching has kept my attention on how people learn to understand those connections.
I studied International Relations at Lahore College for Women University and the National Defence University in Islamabad, before completing an MA with Merit at the University of Northampton in 2024.
Alongside that research, I have taught Humanities and Social Studies in Pakistan, lectured in undergraduate International Relations, and taught Geography, History and Science in England. I now teach in specialist SEMH education in Northamptonshire.
My research and teaching share a concern with context: how relationships shape what we see, what we learn and what becomes possible.
Five places, one line of inquiry.
