CPA UK is committed to promoting interest from the next generation in the Commonwealth and parliamentary democracy. We run a bi-annual work experience programme for young people aged 18 - 25 with intakes in Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter.

In this podcast, we hear from Kike Abayomi who took part in the Summer 2021 programme.

About Kike – My name is Kike Abayomi, I’m currently studying law and sociology at the university of Warwick. My initial interest in applying for CPA UK’s work experience programme was to understand the inner workings of the commonwealth as an institution. More importantly, what really piqued my interest was the role parliaments played in this institution. Upon embarking on this experience I have been welcomed by a passionate and welcoming group of people. I look forward to broadening my understanding of the work that is done to promote harmony in the commonwealth. Finally, seeing the process of planning events as well as seeing some of the final projects is very exciting to me.
