Mujahid Ahmed's Biography
Mujahid Ahmed is originally from the Sudan but was raised in the Middle East before moving to Australia in 2001 to reside mainly in Adelaide. Since then has been performing as MC and stand up comedian and keynote speaker sharing his life story and insights to mental health, multiculturalism, diversity and social issues.
Mujahid Ahmed arrived in Australia in 2001 as a seventeen old from Sudan. During his time in Sudan, he was forcibly conscripted and made into a boy soldier who eventually ended up leading a platoon of boys as young as thirteen. Despite the shattered left arm and the bullet fragments in his right arm, he considers himself to be one of the lucky ones.
Seventeen years later, and the above story feels like a dream. Since then Mujahid has travelled to over thirty countries, learned to speak four languages, became a humanitarian professional and subject matter expert on refugees, a psychologist, the world’s Only Professional Sudanese Comedian, and most importantly he conquered all his demons related to his experiences
Aside from the personal experiences Mujahid endured and overcame, he holds a Bachelor of Psychology, a Masters in Social Development and held several senior management positions in health and human services in multiple Australian states as well as overseas. In 2008 he founded a company called Communique Cultural Solutions which provided cultural training, consultancy, and project management services across Australia. Previous clients included SA Police, The Department of Immigration ACT, and the Department of Education and Children's Services SA.
