Durham SU Assembly is the body responsible for the political and campaigning side of the Union’s work. It is made up of a cross-section of student representatives and students from different communities within the University. At Assembly meetings, members discuss and debate issues that matter to Durham students.
Assembly has five core purposes:
Any student can submit an idea or policy to Assembly and any student can speak for or against a motion, but only Assembly members can vote.
Assembly aims to be a welcoming and accessible body with a culture and tone that allows for differing views to be debated in a safe and supportive way. All Assembly members are responsible for acting in line with this principle.
