Communities Committee

The remit of the Communities Committee is:

  • Promote and support the development of volunteering opportunities to improve community engagement amongst the Student Body with the wider Community. 
  • Campaign on community issues such as, but not limited to affordable transport and provision of community spaces in partnership with other Aberdeen institutions, initiatives, and community groups. 
  • Promote the relationship between AUSA and local schools – both Primary and Secondary – with the aim to widen access to education and encourage a close relationship between students and the young people of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. 
  • Develop cross-institutional strategies with other students’ unions to promote student inclusion across Aberdeen.
  • Consider issues amongst the Old Aberdeen Community Council (OACC) and the impact this may have on students.
