Biqi Gao

Personal author: Gao, Biqi

I went to LSE in 2013 for a graduate study in social policy and graduated from the School with a Master of Science in Development and Social Policy a year later. Being a student of LSE provided me a great opportunity to see the world and to learn more about social policies from my excellent lecturers and fellow students from all over the world. One of my most impressive memory of life in LSE was the department trip to Cumberland Lodge in January 2014. We worked in groups on researching and making policies on different subjects, such as education, traffic problem, public health, etc. It was a wonderful memory of discussing and presenting opinions on police-making with my intelligent group members, as well as an unforgettable memory of a weekend in the beautiful Windsor Great Park. In LSE, the courses I took on health, gender and social welfare, reshaped my understanding of social development, and then contributed to my career in public sector in my home country. Now I'm working for a institution that provides in-service education for schoolteachers from rural areas of China, which helps them to be accessible to more advanced teaching resources, and may finally contribute to improving the education levels of rural areas. It is my experience in LSE that inspires me to work for better education for teachers, and to keep on working even harder in the future.

On 18th Dec 2013, I had my graduation ceremony from LSE, officially holding my degree in MSc in Gender, Development and Globalisation. The degree is very rare for a man, male person, heterosexual feminist man, diversity-oriented gender studier, who is from Busan, South Korea, however, I am so proud of my achievement and time that I could spend with most wonderful women and men, human beings, friends and colleagues from Gender Institute and other departments at LSE. Although it was just one year, I loved it so much so that I had to bring someone who I love with me for my graduation day. It was my mom. She was sitting at the very front seat while I was shaking hands with the then Dean of the School, David Calhoun. So much great memory and a sweet end of the time, which will last forever and ever. Thank you very much, LSE, for being always the smallest but most beutiful part of my life. Thank you.

The interviewer, Lorraine Mirham, was a Leicester WILPF member, and previously a Worthing member during the 1980s.

'These Dangerous Women' Oral History Project

The series contains the recordings of interviews of 8 members of WILPF and related documents. The interviews were conducted between 2013 and 2015, as part of a part of the 'These Dangerous Women' community heritage project to mark the centenary of the formation of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF). Funded by the National Lottery Heritage and run by Clapham Film Unit and WILPF, the project's aims were to celebrate and commemorate the women who tried to stop World War I and founded the organisation. For more information, visit the WILPF UK website and watch the film produced as part of the project.
