Buddy project: do you want to help students with a disability?
Looking for Buddies!
Studying without limitations is a student organization for and by students with a disability. Through this organization we are trying to:
- Share experiences and stories with each other
- Advice the UU policy workers on what studying with a disability is like
- Inform students about the services the UU offers regarding studying with a disability
- And we offer students with a disability extra support through our buddy program
We are looking form buddies:
Studying without limitations is looking for enthusiastic students that want to become a buddy for students with a disability. Having a disability yourself is not mandatory.
What does being a buddy entail:
- Regularly getting together with the student (usually once every one to two weeks).
- Looking with the student what the support will look like.
What do you get for being a buddy?
- EXPERIENCE: As a buddy you gain experience regarding supporting and coaching students with a disability.
- TRAINING: We organize training and intervision sessions, a few times a year, where you can gain knowledge about different disabilities, and you get tips and tricks on how to support and coach others.
Do you want to become a buddy or do you want more information?
