Ana Adamadze is a first-year political science major at Oakton College. She moved from the country of Georgia in 2020 and has been advocating for immigration challenges for young adults since her senior year of high school. After earning an associate’s degree at Oakton, Ana hopes to transfer to a 4-year university to further pursue her passion for supporting those struggling within their country's systems.

As part of the Global Studies Program’s International Education Week Honors Student Ana Adamadze will give a presentation titled “Overcoming Identity Dislocation: My Journey as a Georgian Immigrant”. Ana will discuss her experiences immigrating from Georgia and the sense of identity displacement she encountered along the way. She will implement her experiences of losing her cultural identity, growing up without her family, and witnessing the struggles of the Georgians.
