Contact our Student Action Network

The Student Action Network Committee (STAN Committee) is a group of elected student organisers who help lead Amnesty’s student movement. They support student groups across the country to run powerful campaigns, win human rights victories on campus, and grow our collective impact.

What the STAN Committee does

The committee works to connect students, develop new leaders, and strengthen our network so that together we can build a powerful student movement that defends human rights on and off campus. Each member supports a region of the UK, staying in touch with local groups and offering advice, while also driving forward national campaigns and projects that bring students together to take action. 

If you’re unsure of which STAN Committee rep to contact, please contact the brilliant STAN Co-Chairs;

Student Action Network

The Student Action Network Committee, also known as the STAN Committee, consists of ten students who are elected (by other students!) to lead campaigns, represent student groups in Amnesty UK and to support them in their campaigning. The committee's aims are to support Amnesty Student groups to win human rights victories on campuses, identify and train leaders within our movement, and to grow our student network.

What is an Amnesty student group?

Amnesty student groups take action on their campuses by advocating for human rights through impactful campaigns, protests, educational events, and collaborations with local communities.
