Faiza Shaheen

Faiza Shaheen is a UK-based economist, academic and campaigner known for her work on poverty, inequality and social justice. On this tag page you’ll find news items, opinion pieces and coverage that mention her work or public statements. If you want quick context before you read articles, this page gives a clear, compact picture of who she is and what she stands for.

Who is she and what does she do?

Shaheen trained as an economist and has worked in academia and think tanks. She has written about how housing, wages and public services affect everyday life for people on low incomes. She’s also been involved in politics through the Labour Party and public campaigns. That mix of research and politics means she’s often quoted when the media covers inequality, benefits policy or cost-of-living debates.

Her style is direct: she connects numbers and reports to real people’s lives. That makes her useful to journalists and readers who want policy explained plainly rather than buried in technical language.
