Other experiences
I was heavily involved in student governance and leadership during my bachelor’s degree, serving in various student associations, unions, and councils.
My most important responsibility was serving as President of the student union of Montpellier: Association Générale des Etudiants de Montpellier (2019-2020). I led a team of 15 people and presided over an assembly of 20+ associations representing 75,000+ students. In this role, I directly engaged with regional, departmental, and city authorities, as well as universities and CROUS (Regional Student Services).
I was also elected to serve on the University Council at the faculty level, university level, and regional CROUS for two-year terms each.
Key achievements during my tenure:
- Established the city’s first student social grocery store (Epicerie Solidaire - MASET)
- Organized the most inclusive city elections debate in 2020, successfully bringing together 11 out of 14 mayoral candidates
- Won every single elections we participated in, leading to increased funding for student-led campus projects and practical improvements like evening dining discounts.
I’m now representative of the PhD students and Post-docs at ANITI.
