Meet the Student Wellbeing Ambassadors
The Student Wellbeing Ambassador programme empowers students to share wellbeing messages with other students on issues ranging from bullying, harassment, and discrimination; challenging power dynamics and inequities; support service information and self-care. Following on from a successful pilot period in 2020, the Student Wellbeing Ambassador programme now employs eight students to support the Student Wellbeing Team with their important mahi.
These students are active members of the Wellbeing Team, offering insight into the implementation of projects and initiatives, as well as delivering messages and trainings to others, and connecting with student groups across campus. Importantly, they stand as the student representatives within the wider team, giving a voice to meaningful issues and areas that warrant further discussion.
From the Ambassadors themselves:
Whether you’ve met us before or not, we’re staying for a good time! So it’s probably good that you get to know us first.
