What is the union election?
Every spring we arrange the union election, when we select new members who will sit on the The Representative Assembly (more information about the The Representative Assembly can be found below) during the next business year. The union election is a three-stage rocket and works like this:
- Before the election, all members are welcome to run for office in order to be elected.
- During the election, all members may vote for the candidates.
- After the election, the election results are presented and the newly elected Representative Assembly hold a constituent meeting for the coming financial year at the end of April.
In cases where we need additional members, a fill-in election is usually arranged in September or October of the following semester.
The Representative Assembly
The Representative Assembly is Göta Student Union's highest decision-making body and consists of 21 members who all represent Göta Student Union members. The council decides on general matters such as the budget, business plan and governing documents. Being part of the council means that you are involved in deciding how Göta Student Union should function, which issues we should prioritize and how this is expressed in the daily activities. It is an exciting and rewarding assignment that gives you a chance to be involved and influence major decisions, as well as an important line in your CV.
Please note that Swedish is the organization's working language, so it is important that you have a basic understanding.
How do I vote?
The election is held during the spring term and voting takes place digitally via Mecenat's service karvalet.se.
You log in with your usual Mecenat login, this because the Mecenat app is already your membership card for the corps and thus it recognizes that you are a member and have the right to vote. Nice huh?
Chingeling! Wille kallas jag och är på håret(som jag börjat tappa) till den äldre generation i min klass, jag läser just nu software engineering and management på GU och även lite kurser vid sidan av(vem kan få nog av att läsa kursböcker). Tidigare läste jag ett basår på KTH men insåg fort att stockholmsdialekten var för svår att lära sig och flydde hem till Göteborg igen för att satsa på studentlivet här istället.
Jag söker med anledning av att jag vill sprida kärlek till ITSek och hjälpa till att skapa gemenskap i dem olika programmen. Jag tror inte på att olikhet betyder ovänner, jag ser en möjlighet att bryta fördomar om oss IT nördar och hjälpa till att skapa en god stämning.
Mitt mål med att söka till fullmäktige är att ge alla en chans till ett gott studentliv, vilket program du än söker till och vart du än kommer ifrån.
Paddingtons vänner består av medlemmar i pedagogsexmästeriet som studerar olika linjer på pedagogen.
Som medlemmar i pedagogsexmästeriet brinner vi för att alla studenter ska få ett så bra studentliv som möjligt. Vi är studenter med en stor mötesvana och erfarenhet från föreningsliv som kan bidra till fullmäktiges arbete.
Vårat huvudmål är att driva frågor som främjar studentlivet kring Göteborgs universitet.
På listan:
Kandidat 1: Alfred Nordh
Kandidat 2: Khanh-Linh Tran
Jag är antagen till ULV-program på utbildningsvetenskapliga sektionen.
Jag intresserar mig av likvärdig betygssättning.
Mitt namn är Rasmus Lukk och jag går nu min fjärde termin statsvetarprogrammet här på GU. Jag har tidigare suttit två perioder i fullmäktige där jag både enskilt och tillsammans med andra drivit frågor som exempelvis mer resurser till studenterna och mer studentinflytande på universitetet.
För mig är det viktigaste att studenterna prioriteras framför allt annat. Jag tycker att så mycket som möjligt av pengarna universitet och kåren får ska gå direkt till att gynna studenterna och det är också en fråga jag drivit i fullmäktige sedan tidigare. Nu när pandemin är över vill jag se till att evenemangen tar fart igen och att de pengar som finns används för att göra det billigare att leva som student. Jag vill att kåren och universitetet ska satsa på den enskilda studenten så att alla kan få en bättre studietid, och på så sätt gör Göteborg till en ännu bättre studentstad.
Jag är Saba Monirzadeh studerar masterprogram i utbilningsforskning vid Göterborgs universitet. Jag är väldigt aktiv och är studentrepresentant i min klass.
Jag skulle vilja jobba extra vid sidan av mina studier. Jag är väldigt intresserad av att arbeta på studentkår och peka på studenternas problem och lösa dem i kåren. Jag tycker om att bjuda in alla studenter att delta i utomhu-och inomhusevenemang och att vara bekant med studentlivet och njuta av att vara i Sverige.
Min enda personality trait är att jag har varit utlandsvensk i hela mitt liv och att jag nu inte riktigt vet var jag hör hemma. Pluggar iaf globala studier och är vice ordförande och kassör i SG Globala.
Institutionen för globala studier har engelskspråkliga kandidatprogram, där det finns ett antal icke-svensktalande studenter. De studenter har svårt att få inflytande i Göta Studentkår. SG Globala har varit tvungen att ändra på språket, styrelsen håller sina möten på. Detta kanske är för mycket begärt av en studentkår där över 95% talar svenska, MEN de engelsktalande studenterna på IGS måste åtminstone ha en person att vända sig till om det uppstår frågor/problem/ärenden som rör Göta Studentkår.
