Lola (Loloa Ibrahim) is the Executive Director of the Migrant, Immigrant & Refugee Rights Alliance (MIRR Alliance.) She has served for almost two decades in the nonprofit sector in various capacities including direct service, arts-based activism, community engagement, human rights, gender, and social justice philanthropy. She has taken an advocacy role on behalf of immigrants, youth, and refugee women both in her native Sudan with the Sudan-Reach Women’s Foundation, and while working with immigrant communities in the United States. Lola holds a B.A. from the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University and an M.A. from Harvard University where she researched the ways in which migration and internal displacement impact urban centers and political cultures. She has a particular interest in the intersection of immigration and racial justice—as well as the complexities of diasporic and transcultural identities in a global era where migration has become a principal trend of the future. She believes that through narrative and policy shifts, we can bridge social divides and open up new pathways for understanding and solidarity. Lola lives and works in Cairo, Egypt.
