The NUS Black Students’ Winter Conference is a two-day training event for all students of African, Arab, Asian and Caribbean descent in colleges and universities across Britain. The agenda includes workshops on organising successful clubs and societies, winning Black representation in your union, running anti-racist events and other progressive campaigns.

We also offer a diverse mix of speakers and in the past have been joined by prominent Black MPs and politicians, representatives from the South African High Commission, high-profile Black journalists and leading Black community activists. All are united in their commitment to encouraging Black students to be the best we can, and to build a society in which we can all thrive.

The Conference provides a valuable opportunity to meet other Black students from across the country, collect key resources produced by the Black Students’ Campaign and learn new skills and knowledge to take back to your campuses. With evening entertainment, and excellent food - this is a weekend you won’t want to miss!
