The history of the Student Movement is both exciting and daring. It shows us how geopolitics has always been a factor in the movement and how the will to work together across the world's regions is fundamental to its spirit.
History of the Student Movement
Explore our series on the History of the Student Movement. From the early efforts of the International Federation of Students in 1898, through the rise and fall of Cold War-era organizations like the IUS and ISC, to the formation of regional bodies such as OCLAE and AASU, we trace the evolution of student activism. Learn how these movements paved the way for the creation of the Global Student Forum. Dive into the rich legacy of student solidarity and advocacy that continues to shape our world today.
This series was made possible with the help of Mike Day, who explored the history of the student movement in his lecture for the GSF Academy.
