Conference 2024 Debates

Share

The debates on the Conference special resolutions are happening in May and we want students to get involved, sharing their views and hearing others too.

Special resolutions:

  • Resolution A is the proposal to officially approve the change to the name of our elected Student team from ‘Central Executive Committee’ to ‘Student Leadership Team’.
  • Resolution B proposes changing our elected Student Leadership Team to include three to five Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) roles to represent the existing Groups at the Association in a more comprehensive way. 
  • Resolution C proposes a trustee term change for 2026 to be a one, rather than two, year term in a move towards then holding separate annual elections for student leaders and trustees.  

There will also be discussions around policies put forward by other students including an argument for University support for students with undiagnosed additional needs.
