A Message from Our Founder
"Our organization is a grass roots consortium, made in response to our collective understanding that global student government has so far been ineffective and gatekept by massive fees and nepotist membership policies. Our aim is to create an equitable community of equals, of common citizens, who run the Senate not in order to collect fees or to embellish a résumé, but in order to allow their school communities to thrive, which we believe to be the manner in which a questioning, thriving, and democratic citizenry is built."
