WALEED ALY



Waleed Aly (born in Melbourne in 1978) is an Australian lawyer, journalist, academic and rock musician. In the past, he has been a member of the executive committee of the Islamic Council of Victoria and has also served as the Council's head of public affairs. He is a frequent commentator on Australian Muslim affairs. In 2008, he was selected to participate in the Australia 2020 Summit. His rise to prominence, however, has been as a young, articulate spokesperson for the Australian Muslim community, and is due to his considered commentary on human rights and multiculturalism within Australian society. His journalistic interests range more broadly. Soon after Aly completed his law degree he spent a year as a legal associate of one of Australia's most senior Family Court judges. Through this work he saw the devastating effects of violence against women. As a result he has written a number of articles on this issue. He writes on topics ranging from politics and religion, to community and sport. His writing is much respected and in 2005 he won a Walkely Award Commendation. He is also a commentator on radio and television current affairs programs. He speaks on issues concerning Australia’s Muslim community and the relationship between Islam and western values. Aly is a soughtafter public speaker. He was one of 40 Australians selected as a youth leadership delegate to the Future Summit in Melbourne in 2005. In August 2005, Aly was honoured by being asked to address the Australian Davos Connection's Leadership Retreat, where key issues facing Australia are considered. Aly spoke to an audience that included federal ministers, state premiers, chief executives from Australia’s top 100 companies, as well as leading academics and community leaders. He is married to Susan Carland.
