VP Welfare & Equality Officer
My name is Nasya Igelige, and I will be your Welfare and Equality Officer for the 2025-2026 academic year. I have completed my degree in law at the ATU, and I am so excited to not only be part of the SU team this year but also to be a support to the students on campus.
My main goal is to ensure that the university is a space where all voices can come together and be heard but not only that, for it to be a welcoming space for people from all backgrounds, ensure student wellbeing in different areas and overall to be as helpful and engaging with students as I can be as I understand being a student is not always easy. Public speaking and advocacy does not scare me, both of which I have experience in, and I am more than happy to be the voice that vocalises the needs and wants of the students on campus.
I plan on doing campaigns surrounding tenant rights, mental wellbeing, awareness campaigns, and helping students with accommodation, finances, and much more. I cannot wait to be of help to the students this academic year.
