Rachael Merritt
Biography
Rachael Merritt is a senior at the University of Michigan, where she is double majoring in International Studies and Russian. She has been deeply involved in regional affairs, traveling to Russia and Kyrgyzstan, and working closely with Russian journalists and activists. At Michigan, she co-founded the Flying Subtitles Collective, a group that provides free professional translation and subtitling services for Russian activists, students, and journalists to promote the accessibility of critical information. In various positions, she has written on Russian and Belarusian politics as well as digital democracy and internet accessibility.

At Oxford, Rachael plans to study in the Russian and Eastern Europe and Social Science of the Internet programs in order to form a more comprehensive understanding of authoritarian employment of the internet in information operations used to undermine democratic institutions, particularly the free press. She is eager to work with NGOs or state bodies situated in this thematic and regional intersection.

个人简介
Rachael Merritt是密歇根大学的大四学生，她在那里主修国际研究和俄语。她一直深入参与地区事务，前往俄罗斯和吉尔吉斯斯坦，并与俄罗斯记者和活动家密切合作。在密歇根大学，她共同创立了 "飞行字幕组"，该组织为俄罗斯活动家、学生和记者提供免费的专业翻译和字幕服务，以促进关键信息的可及性。在不同的岗位上，她写过关于俄罗斯和白俄罗斯政治以及数字民主和互联网可及性的文章。
