Amina Khan

Communications and Media Manager

Amina Khan is Access Now’s Communications and Media Manager and a volunteer member of the advisory communications committee for the LGBT Foundation. Previously, she spent six years as a communications lead in global sexual and reproductive healthcare (FYI abortion is healthcare) and held various consultancy roles in private philanthropy, and refugee rights. When she’s not putting her communication skills toward social justice and human rights, you can find her hiking, playing football (soccer), boxing, or anything that gets her outdoors. Fun fact: She once got to ask Angela Davis a question at the Women of the World Festival in 2017!
