Your Voice, Your Safety, My Priority.

                                         

                                     

 

 I am Moumita Masud Mina, a second-year LLB student running to be your Women’s Welfare Officer. For me, empowerment isn't a buzzword—it’s a social right. My journey began with the Girls Guide organization, where I led initiatives on mental wellbeing and menstrual hygiene. Now, I am bringing that same hands-on commitment to UWE. I’ve seen that real change starts when we stop talking and start building; and I am ready to ensure those support systems are there for every woman at UWE.

 

                                                       My 4 Concrete Pledges to You:

 

1.A Dedicated Space for Student Parents: University shouldn't be a barrier to parenting and I believe no student should have to choose between their education and their child. I will lobby UWE to establish a private, high-quality Breastfeeding & Parenting Room on campus, so no student or staff member has to compromise on care.

 

2. A "Zero-Barrier" Approach to Safety: Research by Revolt Sexual Assault shows 62% of students experience sexual misconduct hence  awareness isn’t enough. I will push for:

  • Verified Consent Workshops for all societies and sports teams.
  • Clearer Reporting: Making the disclosure process simpler and stigma-free.

3. Accessible Sexual Health Support : 15–24-year-olds account for 50% of new STI diagnoses. I will work to bring:

  • On-Campus Testing Pop-ups- in collaboration with the SU as well as strengthening partnership with Yuno (formerly Unity Sexual Health) to bring regular, confidential testing pop-ups directly to the Students’ Union.
  • Free, Discreet Health Packs (including contraception and products) available at key campus hubs.
  • Three-Campus Visibility: Ensuring welfare services shouldn't be "Frenchay-only" but are rotated across Bower Ashton, Glenside.

4. An Intersectional, Visible Lead: UWE is a diverse, international community. Being an international student myself I pledge to hold monthly "Open-Door" sessions as well as Monthly Digital Feedback Forms, —both in-person and digital so your concerns are heard directly by the SU leadership.

 

                                                            Why Vote me?

Students often feel the Students’ Union is a "black box" where voices get lost. As a Law student, I know how to navigate university policy to get things done. I won’t just be a title; I will be a visible, reachable advocate with monthly open-door sessions for any woman who needs a seat at the table.

               Let’s build a safer, stronger, and more supportive UWE together.
