Our Student Networks are places where students can campaign and build communities together.
Students Networks are autonomous representative groups who Brookes Union recognises have been historically marginalised within the student body and wider society. Any student who self-defines as a member of a marginalised group can join a network, and can access funding for campaign ideas.

The Women’s Network, LGBT+ Network, BIPOC Network, Black Students Network and Disabled Students Network all have elected Chairs who sit on Brookes Union’s Equality and Diversity Exec.
Any student who self-defines as a member of one of these groups is welcome to become a member of the respective network.
In addition, we also host a Postgrad Network, Mature Students Network, and Environmental Network. If you belong to one of these groups, or are interested in campaigning around the issue of the environment, you can become a member of one of these networks.
Students can be a member of as many networks as they want, so long as they self-define into the relevant group!
Networks aim to combat oppression, discrimination and inequality faced by students. There is a campaign budget available to all networks, and students can submit campaign ideas for how that money is spent throughout the year. These ideas will be voted on at the first meeting of the semester, and funding will be allocated to help groups win the chosen campaign.
Networks are a brilliant place to start organising for change, as well as to meet and connect with other students from similar backgrounds. Networks are places where you can achieve real change and learn to become a campaigner, as well as a place to build community and belonging. Student Networks play an essential role in holding Brookes Union and OBU to account on issues of equality, diversity and inclusion.
If enough students vote for it, we'll fund you and help you make it a reality.
