As a student myself, I've experienced firsthand the challenging circumstances many of us are put under. From expensive housing situations to mental health struggles exacerbated by stress for our future, it is clear that there is a real need for change. Studies indicate that 65% of college students reported having experienced overwhelming anxiety in the past year, and one in five students face food insecurity (National Alliance on Mental Illness, 2019). Meanwhile, the cost of student accommodation has increased by 31% in the past decade (CNN Business, 2020). We seek to address these issues at both a local and national level, urging education institutions, local authorities, and national lawmakers to look into ways to improve the living conditions of students, whether through increased support services or more affordable accommodation options. Let us create a better environment for students to succeed - one that regards their health and well-being as a priority. Please sign this petition to help us in our fight for a viable change.
