WHO THEY ARE
Student advocacy.
A practical campaign.
IGNITE advocates for students at Humber Polytechnic and the University of Guelph-Humber. Its OSAP Is Ours campaign connects student experiences with proposals to improve financial aid.
The published campaign calls for restored grant support, a longer repayment grace period, a retention grant and removing interest on provincial student loans. Visit its own page for the full proposals and latest actions.

Make it possible
to take part.
A clear task makes it easier to take part: describe what changed, ask a question or send a message in your own words. That is the approach we want for Perspectives.
Student accounts remain with their original publisher. Any account published here would be approved by its author for this site and context.
