what would be your'rre manifesto if you're contesting in a election
Answers
Answer:
Your manifesto is a 250 word statement which tells people who you are, what you hope to achieve whilst in the role and why people should vote for you. It’s what people will see when they go online to vote. Before you get started:
Who are your voters? It’s important to remember that students are a diverse range of people, from different backgrounds and cultures, studying at different levels. Try to reach out to and appeal to those students who you want to vote for you!
Have you done your research? Asking students what they want to change can help you develop a manifesto which will create impact in the role. It can also help you get students on side by making sure you’re focused on what they want!
Are your goals feasible? All of these roles have many different aspects to them and your manifesto commitments won’t be the only thing you’re working on. Make sure you focus on what’s important so you can get it done. This will help you achieve the biggest impact you can.
