NOWSA   2018

This year, the National Union of Students has partnered up with the Newcastle University Students Association and the Council of Australian Postgraduate Associations to deliver NOWSA 2018!
NOWSA 2018 will be hosted at the University of Newcastle from the 16th-20th July. 

The theme of this years conference is about empowering and up-skilling women to run their own campaigns and actively participate in the movement for change and equality. It's important that women are not just being a part of the movement for change but are leading it themselves. We are hoping to run a bunch of workshops and sessions around how to run campaigns including online presence, volunteer training and campaign messaging. 

NOWSA 2018 registrations are open now. Register your spot today!

Sponsorship

The NOWSA Organising Collective is seeking sponsorship from companies and organisations. This will ensure the highest quality of speakers and not-for-profit organisations can be funded to attend, allowing for attendees to gain the most knowledge, experience, and skills from the conference as possible.
NOWSA also provides scholarships for women students who wish to attend NOWSA but do not have the means to do so without added assistance. Sponsoring organisations are encouraged to sponsor attendees to ensure they do not miss out on the experiences NOWSA provides.
If you are interested in sponsoring NOWSA 2018, please find our proposal here.

Volunteer & Grievance committee

If you would like to be a member of the conference grievance committee or if you would like to offer to volunteer during the conference, please contact the organising committee via email at contact.nowsa@gmail.com
