Engaged Citizenship:
According to Julius Bertz (2015:4) “…to be an engaged citizen means to relate to one's political community in an attitude of habitual interest and care. This means to follow public concerns and discourse with an active mind and actual action if seen necessary. Participatory democracy is the form of deliberative democratic method, which places political responsibility primarily on the citizen as being actively involved in its discursive processes."
All student social impact initatives are in alignment with the
United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
