Give us your pitch! Why do you want the job and why should students vote for you? 

I aspire to become the Welfare and Sustainability Officer because I firmly believe that enhancing student welfare and promoting sustainable policies on campus can significantly improve our academic and living experiences.

I possess the skills to organise events, listen to the needs of my peers, and communicate effectively, enabling me to represent our interests and bring about tangible changes. 

My aim is to create a more inclusive, healthy, and environmentally friendly campus environment where every student feels the positive impact. 

With an unlimited budget, what three things would you do to improve student-experience? 

1.Establish a comprehensive student support center to provide mental health, academic guidance and career planning services.

 2.Create smart learning spaces equipped with the latest technology and resources to promote innovation and collaborative learning. 

3.Carry out a variety of campus cultural and sports activities to enhance students’ sense of belonging and community spirit.

Why is sustainability important to you?

Sustainability ensures the long-term well-being and development of the student community.

It encourages us to adopt eco-friendly lifestyles and learning methods, reducing our environmental impact, while also cultivating students to become responsible global citizens through education and practice.

 This not only enhances their quality of life but also paves the way for their success in an increasingly sustainability-focused world.
