Dzhafar (he/him) is an international undergraduate student at the University of Toronto, studying Public Policy and Economics. Dzhafar’s mental health advocacy aspiration stems from his personal story of overcoming a mental health struggle through the support of his community when starting his university journey far away from his family. To pay it forward, Dzhafar has become a Jack Talk Speaker to contribute to the ongoing process of building caring communities. Currently, Dzhafar serves as a Jack.org Ontario Network Representative, and it supports him in promoting the idea of youth-driven agenda-setting that, he believes, allows young people to shape their future world.
