CLICK HERE TO WATCH: explaining the Liberation Collective in under 3 minutes

The Liberation Collective is NUS’ new space to strengthen and support liberation activism and it is led by students and apprentices from our five liberation groups: disabled, LGBTQ, Racialised, Trans and women.

It is the result of a 5-year process of consultation, research, co-design and democratic activity with participation from all liberation groups and all nations, as well as HE and FE members. Now you have the chance to become a founding member and collaborate with others to build a national network of liberation activists. 

Follow these steps to become a founding member of the Liberation Collective!

1. Become a supporter: Sign up to get email or WhatsApp updates

2. Connect with others: Attend one of our online Welcome Events

3. Become a founding member: Access support and resources as well as the chance to build a community, plan action and have a saying in the Collective's direction.   

You can also contact our Liberation Collective Manager if you want to host a Liberation Collective workshop at your local Students' Union

Principles

We’ve learnt that community is essential in order to organise successfully and that the right support creates the conditions for action. While our aim is to build community, offer peer support and take action, we also want all structures and processes of the Collective to follow the principles developed and trialled by students in the past years:

• Inclusive
• Direct
• Flexible
• Non-hierarchical
