AUSA stands in solidarity with Garissa University
Media Release
The Auckland University Student’s Association (AUSA) stands in solidarity with the students and staff of Garissa University.
AUSA strongly condemns the action of
the al-Shabaab gunmen who stormed into Kenya’s Garissa
University’s halls of residence and murdered over 140
innocent students. It is AUSA’s belief that universities
and institutions of higher educations are valuable and
sacred places of learning. Central to this, universities
should enable and encourage students to experience different
ideas and cultures, allowing them to gain a better mutual
understanding and help them become more tolerant. The
actions of al-Shabaab directly go against this and therefore
must not go unpunished.
