About Dr. Ayham
Cambridge cannot afford a decorative Chancellor. In a time of rapid change and rising challenges, it needs clarity, courage, and conviction. If elected, I will lead from the front - with purpose and urgency.
This document outlines my priorities for the first 100 days as Chancellor, setting the tone for a new era of principled and proactive leadership.
My First 100 Days Action Plan as Chancellor.
1. Access and Equity

as Chancellor

Brilliance belongs at Cambridge - regardless of background, postcode, or passport.
- Support and expand the Next Generation Cambridge campaign.
- Grow the Foundation Year and increase scholarships for:
- Care leavers
- First-generation students
- Under-represented postgraduate communities
- Champion fair access and widen participation at every level of the University.
2. Climate and Sustainability
Real climate leadership - not slogans.
- Be a vocal and visible advocate for Cambridge Zero.
- Scale up the Student Societies Climate Fund to back student-led sustainability initiatives.
- Advance a Green Investment Framework to ensure the University’s financial decisions align with its environmental responsibilities.
3. Innovation and Student Societies
Cambridge students are changemakers - let’s empower them.
- Launch a Societies Innovation Fund to connect student-led ideas with:
- Alumni expertise
- Donor support
- Global partnerships
- Create space for student societies to act as engines of innovation, research, and impact.
4. Governance and Transparency
Replace distance with accountability. Replace silence with action.
- Establish the Chancellor’s Accountability Forum - a standing assembly where students, staff, and leadership regularly review progress and policy.
- Promote a governance culture rooted in transparency, participation, and results.
- Dismantle unnecessary bureaucracy and foster a culture of openness and trust.
5. Inclusion That Matters
Not just diversity headlines - measurable, meaningful change.
- Expand mentorship and career support for under-represented scholars.
- Advocate for fair, inclusive hiring across the University.
- Push for practical policies that embed inclusion in the lived experience of staff and students.
Vote for courage. Vote for change.
This is not a symbolic agenda. It is a promise of action. Under my leadership, the first 100 days will lay the foundation for a modern, inclusive, forward-facing Cambridge. Because Cambridge doesn’t just deserve better - it demands it.
I will stand up for Cambridge. I will stand up for you. Together, let’s build the next great chapter.
