Student Voice Summit 2019

The fourth annual Student Voice Summit, jointly hosted by NZUSA, Te Mana Ākonga, Tauira Pasifika and the New Zealand International Students' Association and AQA, was held on Thursday 4 October 2018 at Massey University's Pukeahu Campus in Wellington.

The Student Voice Summit aims to support the professional development and transfer of knowledge for incoming student representatives. SVS19 provided learning opportunities and discussed current issues faced by students across New Zealand. Incoming students were able to gain an overview of academic quality processes and academic decision making in the university sector.

In line with previous summits. SVS19 recognises the difficulty faced by student representatives to advocate on behalf of their students within their universities. We see our support and involvement in this Summit as a way to bring students together alongside quality professionals from within their universities.
