bLine #8: Student Politics
Description
This episode of bLine looks at student politics and student associations across Aotearoa. Student organisations and unions can be found in all of Aotearoa’s universities, and their names can be seen at countless student events. But what is it that these organisations actually do, and what kinds of challenges do they face? Is the heyday of student unions long gone, or is there more to look forward to on the horizon? To get a snapshot of how student associations are doing at the moment, we spoke to presidents from associations across the motu.
Thanks to all of our guests, 2025 President of Victoria University of Wellington Students’ Association, Liban Ali, 2025 President of the University of Canterbury Students’ Association, Luc MacKay, 2025 President of Otago University Students' Association, Liam White, and 2026 president of Auckland University’s Students' Association, Nimish Milan Singh.
Happy listening!
