2025 CONFERENCE
“Disruptive Praxis: Transcending Boundaries and Building Bridges”
As campuses worldwide witness and take part in collective actions such as sit-ins, encampments, and hunger strikes, reflecting on the right history of student activism provides valuable insights for our ongoing discussion about the effectiveness of various organizing strategies and the precedents set by students. Our conference focuses on
Upholding the vitality of the growing momentum in student activism and action, emphasizing the importance of community care and uplifting voices of those whose survival is tied with the liberation of others
Confronting the multifaceted challenges encountered by student organizers by prioritising the establishment of meaningful relationships and effectively addressing the boundaries and capacities we often confront along the way.
We believe that true liberation and transformative change stem from fostering connections rooted in empathy, solidarity, and shared vision. This conference is designed to strengthen the foundations of community organizing by leveraging insights from historical and contemporary movements. It will foster critical inquiry and fuel the capacities of student organizing through a series of workshops, training, and panels. Join us for this engaging experience on February 21-23, 2025. More information is to come on specific speakers and panelists!
