Help an international educator overcome PhD funding barriers

Donation protected
Hello everyone,
My name is Abdul Moiz, and I am an international academic and educator from Hyderabad, Sindh, Pakistan, currently based in the UK. I am deeply passionate about Education and the English language, and I aspire to pursue a PhD in Education. My research will explore how inclusive and interdisciplinary approaches can improve learning experiences for marginalized communities, contributing to meaningful educational reform.

Why I Need Your Support
As an international student, the biggest challenge I face is the high cost of PhD tuition fees, nearly three times the amount paid by UK home students. Despite my strong academic background, securing PhD funding in the Education and Social Sciences is extremely difficult, as these fields receive limited financial support compared to STEM disciplines. Even though I am working in the UK, I cannot afford a Phd fee of 15900 average in the UK.

I have applied for multiple funding opportunities, but due to the scarcity of scholarships in my field, I have been unable to secure financial assistance. Without external support, funding my PhD is nearly impossible, despite my commitment to advancing research in education.

My Academic & Professional Background
I have dedicated my career to education, research, and supporting diverse learners:
• MA in Education with Distinction (UK) – Achieved top academic honors, further strengthening my expertise in educational research.

• Public Policy Scholar (USA) – Selected on a fully funded scholarship to study Public Policy in the US, gaining valuable insights into policy-making and education reform.

• Senior Lecturer Practitioner (Anglia Ruskin University, UK) Working part time and teaching research methodology, interdisciplinary education, and community-building.

• Lifelong passion for education and the English language, aiming to make learning more accessible and inclusive.

How Your Support Will Help
Your contributions will help cover:
✅ PhD Tuition Fees – The most significant financial barrier due to international student rates.

Why This PhD Matters
Pursuing a PhD is not just an academic milestone for me, it is a personal and professional commitment to creating lasting change in education. I believe that language and education are powerful tools for empowerment, and I want to contribute to making learning more inclusive for diverse communities.

Any Help is Greatly Appreciated

If you’re unable to contribute financially, guidance on securing scholarships or alternative funding sources would be incredibly helpful. Any leads, advice, or support in navigating funding options would mean the world to me.
Even a small contribution or simply sharing this campaign can make a huge difference. Thank you for your support, encouragement, and belief in the power of education!
With gratitude,
Abdul Moiz
