About Saron Weldemariam '26
Saron Weldemariam graduated from SA国际传媒 with majors in Political Science and Sociology with a minor in International Studies. As an immigrant from Eritrea, she brings a deeply personal and global perspective to her academic and ethical work. Weldemariam is passionate about immigration justice and policy, especially the ethical responsibilities of nations toward asylum seekers and displaced populations. She used her fellowship opportunity to explore the ethical dimensions of global asylum systems and how national policies shape the destinies of people seeking refuge, drawing from both international frameworks and her own lived experience.
Weldemariam hopes to pursue a career in advocacy, research, or law that bridges human rights and policy, grounded in ethical reflection and community voice. She believes that ethics must not only call out injustice but actively reimagine the systems we've come to accept as normal.
