Hello, my name is Marwan Mariami I am a final year Accounting and Finance student. I’m standing to be your next VP Societies and Communication officer. During my studies, I have been involved in sport activities with the UWE men`s football club as well as many other sporting activities with other societies.

Having participated in a range of different activities at University, this demonstrates that I am capable of being dynamic.
Leadership programme.
Anybody should be able to take part in a society, and for this to be made more effective, I would like to introduce a Leadership Programme for committee members that considers how their voice and outreach can be further enhanced and improved to reach those students whom may end up feeling left out. This programme is also an opportunity for those committee members to further develop their skills to make them more ready and enabled graduates.
Redevelop society training
I would like to help the Students’ Union improve the way society committee members are trained up to ensure that the committee are prepared to a high standard for the year ahead, helping them reach their objectives in a more efficient way.
Improvements for academic societies
Help Increase the support to the academic societies and encourage them to engage with their departments, especially the ones that have recently started up.
Enhance Liberation campaigns
I would like to have more high-profile liberation campaigns to highlight challenges students face who are from underrepresented and disadvantage background. This can be achieved by working closely with societies and students to make these campaigns as relevant as possible.
