Active Campaign • An Integral Part Of The Union Don’t let liberation become just a society or a one off campaign, keep it at the heart of union – after all it is most of your members!
• Working Together! One that goes without saying, working together leads to bigger and better campaigns, whether you encourage cross liberation working, or joining campaigns with the SU!
• Standing Together! Solidarity goes a long way to creating success, lots of Liberation campaigns will cover difficult topics in their year – having the union backing gives much more of a push behind their work!
• Just… Being There Sometimes all an officer will need is someone to run ideas past or let them know they are on the right track – don’t forget to keep in touch!
Case Studies In 2011 we launched an International LGBT Exchange network across our Partner Universities which won the NUS International Students’ International Communications Silver Award! Our Faith and Sexuality week opened doors for discussion and understanding across campus and offered support to students. The campaign is featured in the NUS Toolkit for FE Institutions!
In February we led a ‘Love Sport Hate Homophobia’ campaign week that raised awareness of Homophobia in sport and helped our teams go the extra mile for their members. It is featured in the NUSlgbt Out In Sport report as well as the Branding being used by LGBTs in other universities next year!
