What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?

Hello UCL!

I’m Elisa, your Women's Officer, and thrilled to be running for re-election. In 2023, I’ve worked closely with the SU and UCL societies to bring practical changes on campus:

  • Free and sustainable period products in all buildings.
  • 16 Days of activism and staff training against SGBV.
  • Over 10 activism fundraisers and workshops.
  • Daily SU and UCL meetings to defend our rights and get rapid interventions.
  • UCL Ambassador with UN Women UK to represent our community’s priorities.

I’m committed to ensure that EVERY WOMAN FEELS SAFE, RESPECTED AND VALUED on campus and outside.

What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?

A SAFE & INCLUSIVE CAMPUS

  • Campus Lighting: press Camden Council to ensure secure journeys at night.
  • SGBV* Healing spaces: safe counselling and self-expression platform.

CELEBRATING BEAUTY

  • Body-Positive Art Festival: challenge conventional beauty standards & norms.
  • Creative Expression Workshops: express ourselves through dance, poetry & art.

PROMOTING GENDER EQUALITY

  • Period Products: double free menstrual products in gender-neutral locations.
  • Workshops & Speaker series: amplify and celebrate marginalised voices.

*Sexual & Gender-Based Violence

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

We’re facing serious challenges on the path to Gender equality and representation of Women’s issues. To promote our causes and defend our priorities day-to-day requires clarity, diplomacy, and persistence. With your support, I will continue to be a strong advocate for our rights and work closely with UCL societies to create a more inclusive and safer UCL.

Together, let's strive for progress, equality, and empowerment!
