Our Delegates shared that being a part of the conference has given them an improved understanding of lived student experiences, an opportunity to network with like-minded students, and has re-sparked their passion to fight for underrepresented students.
“The NUS conference remains etched in my memory as an extraordinary event, rich with experiences and insights. Arriving in Blackpool, we stepped into the Winter Gardens and embarked on a journey that would broaden our horizons and deepen our understanding of crucial issues within the student community.”
“The NUS conference stands as a testament to the power of dialogue, collaboration, and advocacy in fostering positive change within the student community and beyond. It was an honour to be a part of this transformative experience, one that will resonate with me for years to come.”
The Delegates expressed that the conference broadened their horizons, and called it a revelatory experience which underscored the importance of representation and solidarity within student communities.
“As someone passionate about trans* liberation and disability rights, it was really amazing to be in rooms full of people who felt the same and who had the lived experience that is so essential to understanding these issues.”
“An unexpected delight awaited me at dinner, as I was graciously invited to join African students, fostering meaningful connections and cultural exchange. Engaging with fellow students from diverse backgrounds underscored the universality of our aspirations and struggles, reinforcing the bonds that unite us across borders.”
