Identity
Islam, sexuality, gender, ethnicity and history are not separate boxes. Akbar's work begins where they meet.
Mission
Re-reading faith through identity, experience and human rights.
Akbar's mission is rooted in dignity, interpretation and the right to belong fully.
Exile & Belonging
His move from Burundi to Sweden shaped a lifelong attention to safety, migration and structural barriers.
Academia
Nine years of academic work across international relations, sociology, political science and human rights.
Representation
His story opens space for more nuanced conversations about faith, identity and belonging.
My mission is to help people re-read Islamic texts, find compatibility with who they are, and build a personal relationship with the Creator.
