Student governance

Student governance refers to the systems and structures through which students participate in decision-making processes within educational institutions. It typically involves elected representatives who voice students' concerns, advocate for their interests, and collaborate with faculty and administration on policies that affect student life. Student governance bodies, like student councils, promote engagement, leadership, and responsibility among students, enhancing their educational experience and fostering community involvement. Overall, student governance empowers learners to influence their environment while developing skills in leadership, teamwork, and problem-solving.
