Niketa Bissessar
Niketa Bissessar has an insatiable appetite for knowledge that will aid in eliminating the injustice against all women. She believes in a society that promotes equality, diversity, and respect towards all its members including minority groups and women. Being the first generation to have the opportunity to attend university in her Guyanese-Canadian family, has given her the personal drive to actively facilitate change in the Canadian society. Recently graduating York University with an undergraduate degree in Criminology, Niketa has developed a strong passion for how Canadian Muslim women are treated in the 21st century. She would like to explore the intersections of religion, politics, and the criminal justice system and how they are intertwined in this context. From this passion, she would like to further her post secondary education in policy or law in which she can assist in creating a support network for immigrant communities and women who face discrimination, inequality, and injustice. Niketa is a strong advocate in creating a strong voice for women in Canada, which will enhance our identity and rights as women. |
