NUS-USI 2025

Date: Thursday 10 April 2025
Location: Southern Regional College Students' Union, Armagh Campus

We can't wait to welcome you to the orchard county this April, as NUS-USI 2025 takes place this year at SRCSU Armagh Campus. This is an exciting opportunity for students to come together to build high-impact campaigns that lead to real change.

We’re transforming how members engage in national changemaking and if you’ve come to our democratic events before they’re going to feel REALLY different.  

Here's what you can expect:
  • We’ll be data driven with What Students Think  

We’ve gathered insight from SUs and students directly to identify the priorities across our movement. The analysis we do together will be based on what students are telling us about what will make a difference to their lives  

  • We’ll be focused on our campaign priorities  

What we pay attention to grows. We’re using the precious time we have together to strengthen the work we’ve committed to deliver. This means fewer topics with greater impact.  

  • We’re interested in winning together  

You’ve told us you’re done with repetitive discussion about the problems, NUS-USI 2025 is about what we’re going to do about them. Expect to grapple with strategic and tactical questions about where and how we can have the most impact.  

  • We’re putting campaigns at the centre  

We’re making all these changes because our democracy should be a vehicle for campaigns but if we’re honest it hasn’t been for a long time. Every session is about the work we need to do together, right now and in the future, to win for the students we all represent.
