INVITATION
for an ebook co-publication
OF Student’ unions
Dear Student Friends from all over the World,
This is a call! A call to go beyond our local and national scaled conditions and to meet on a shared platform at a macro level! We see the necessity to share our views, to interact with each other, and to articulate our shared benefi ts. It is clear that we have enough reasons for such an interaction. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us that humanity is a whole entity; however, the economic, social and political crises as well as the destruction of nature are equally valid examples for the previous claim.
This is an Invitation! We had witnessed that students across the world are listing their demands and are dreaming for a better future, and more just future regarding their natural right to education. All these efforts are precious, and their realization would mean a great success. We, the Students eBook Project seek to materialize such realization and to take steps to become voice such aspirations to global scale.
Because of this reason, we have managed to come together rom different walks of live across the world, Latin America, Africa, Europe, Oceania, and Asia. We kindly invite you and would like to see you in our ranks!
