SOAS students will start to hear talk about General Assemblies in the economics, development and politics departments before the November 21 National Union of Students demonstration.
.
The idea of departmental General Assemblies is to foster direct democracy on campus. This means that people can participate directly in decision-making in their departments on issues of education and broader national or global concerns. You are able to raise issues that directly concern you, and to openly discuss them will people in your department.
.
SOAS students are preparing GAs in the departments of economics, development, politics, history, China and Inner Asia, South Asian Studies, Anthropology.
.
Good GAs require active participation and high turnout! Interested in organising a GA in your department?
