The AStA speaker’s collective currently consists of four speakers: Denise (she/her), Emil (he/him), Hannah (she/-) and Theo (he/him).
This is us:
Denise (she/her) is in her sixth semester of environmental science and was also elected to the StuPa for Campus Grün this year. During our term of office, she is responsible for, among other things, cooperation with the StuPa and the committees, as well as for PR.
Emil (he/him) is in his twelfth semester of cultural studies and has previously worked as a videographer in the team for the Opening Week, Conference Week and Utopia Conference since 2020. He came to the AStA through his involvement in the StuBe society. His focus will also be on public relations and cooperation with the AStA societies.
Hannah (she/-) is in her sixth semester of Global Environmental and Sustainability Studies and started her term as speaker on a mountain summit in Corsica. Hannah’s responsibilities include networking with the city and county as well as with the other student bodies in Lower Saxony and Germany. She also handles finances of the AStA.
Theo (he/him) is also in his sixth semester of Global Environmental and Sustainability Studies. He got involved in university politics and the AStA as part of the RPO campaign, then went abroad for a semester and now wants to devote all his energy to our student body – and what better place to do that than in the AStA?! Theo will also take over the national networking and will take care of internal matters that keep the AStA and its service companies running.
These are our tasks:
We were elected by the Student Parliament (StuPa) on June 19, 2024 and our task is to represent the student body in its political, social and cultural concerns to the public and the various groups at the university. We regularly hold discussions with various people and groups at the university to find out the latest developments for you and to represent your interests. We do this not only with the university, but also with the city, the state and the federal government.
We also network with other student unions. This happens at the state level in the LandesAstenKonferenz (LAK) and at the federal level in the free association of student unions (fzs).
Our daily work mainly involves the organization, coordination and administration of the AStA. We are the employers of the numerous employees in the AStA and support the departments. Every Tuesday at 2:00 p.m., an AStA meeting with all the speakers takes place, in which current topics are discussed that primarily affect the AStA with its departments or the university in general. These meetings take place in the MuFuZi in building 9 and are open to the university. Interested parties are therefore welcome at any time!
In addition, we organize political events and campaigns – often in cooperation with the AStA departments and university initiatives. We are also responsible for organizing the annual Ersti Party and the AStA Summer Festival (the Summer Open Air).
In short, we are the interface between the student body and all other members of the university. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or problems. In most cases, we can help you directly, otherwise we know who to consult to help you further.
