Description |
The world as we know it is a mess of injustice held in place by an entrenched global establishment. We believe that only strong social and environmental justice movements can transform the world. People & Planet seeks to extend and strengthen this struggle through universities. We empower students to be strong organisers of radical campaigns, integrated into a broader student network and coalition of movements. We believe immensely in the significance of political education, in the strategic coordination of different efforts for justice, and in open access to skills and resources. Student groups running the Undoing Borders campaign have been pushing their universities to end their support for the hostile environment. Their long-term goal is to get their Vice-Chancellors to sign the 'Pledge Against the Hostile Environment', which includes commitments to ensure migrants' access to education, and to prioritise students' and workers' rights and freedoms over compliance with the Home Office. In the last academic year, they took their demands to Vice-Chancellors as well as their national representative body, Universities UK. They put migrant justice at the centre of solidarity with UCU strikes and fought back against the pressure on international students to cross picket lines for attendance requirements. Right now we're pushing universities to provide a migrant justice response to the COVID-19 pandemic. JOB PURPOSE CONTRACT DETAILS Fixed term: From mid September 2020 - July 2021.
