Peju Abuchi

Passionate Poet sets kids on fire!

combination of passion, poetry and pizzazz.

She studied Law and Business Studies (BA Hons) at the University of Middlesex

then went on to complete an MA in International Studies and Diplomacy from The

School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS).

Peju loves to fuse the fine art of diplomacy with the heart of her poetry by

speaking into themes that range from the triumphant to the traumatic, from the

beauty of life to the end of life.

For many centuries, poetry has been used to communicate great truths and to

expose destructive lies. In Poetry, we find answers, climb hills and

contemplate different life scenarios. We speak to nations, communities,

individuals and ourselves.

Peju uses the power of poetry to deliver memorable, meaningful and magical

sessions on themes and topics that resonate deeply with young people. From

beauty to bullying, women's empowerment to mental health, her listeners will

leave enthused, enlightened and encouraged to take their place in society and

make a difference!

She is witty and curious, sassy and serious; a lover of words, laughter and

home-made cake.
