Magdalena Smieszek is an international human rights scholar, practitioner and educator. Her current focus is on the intersection between human rights law and psychology, primarily as it concerns social inclusion and exclusion. Prior to her doctoral research and teaching at the Central European University in Budapest, she spent many years doing humanitarian work around the world with various organizations, including about a decade with the United Nations. She completed degrees in international human rights that include a Master of Studies from the University of Oxford, a Juris Doctor from the University of Windsor, and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Calgary. Magdalena came to transpersonal psychology through a profound psychospiritual awakening and has been active ever since in a number of ways, most recently in the Emerging Proud campaign and film that aims to destigmatize extreme spiritual experience and reform mental health care.
