MAWSA are once again members of the New Zealand Union of Students’ Associations (NZUSA)
↓
The relationship MAWSA has with NZUSA is one that means that our President, Vice President and Executive officers are better trained, more prepared to tackle issues facing the New Zealand student population and are supported by the wider student advocacy body. We are now part of an organisation that is even more in-touch with nationwide campaigns and can support us in successfully providing better and more advanced advocacy and representation services for Massey Wellington Students.
The relationship MAWSA has with NZUSA means that we pay membership fees to be an active NZUSA member. We receive governance and management training, as well as being afforded the opportunity to connect with other student associations and represent Massey Wellington Students in the nationwide student movement. Moreover, a selection of our Executive officers sit on NZUSA committees and provide insight into existing NZUSA policies and practices that help shape and drive NZUSA as an organisation. Having members of the MAWSA team active in NZUSA decision making means that Massey Wellington Students are not only represented but are also heard at a national level.
