The Assembly 2026/2027
Elections are now closed.

The Assembly, or Fullmäktige (FUM) in Swedish, is the highest decision-making body of the Social Sciences Student Union. This body functions similarly to a parliament, where elected representatives act on behalf of all members when making important decisions for the student union. The Assembly meets at least two times per semester, and will decide at the beginning of autumn how many times to convene in the coming year.

ASSEMBLY MEETING #6 – 13 May 16:30

The documents for the meeting have now been published! See the button below.

At the sixth meeting of the Assembly the Action Plan, Political Action Plan and Budget for the coming operational year is decided. The report on the Political Action Plan and By-elections for the coming operational year are treated. Additionally, four motions submitted by members of the Student Union will be handled.
