KAN x Volt FSE
KAN (or Climate Action Network) is the international student green party at UM, which advocates for sustainability, student wellbeing, and social justice at the university. This year, KAN is running a joint ticket with Volt Maastricht to bring green values to a wider student audience! If you want to know more about us, check out our instagram page (with our manifesto linked) and explore our candidates!
Diego Meelis
- Your voice, my mission.
- No Ivory Tower: Bring the Faculty Council back to the students through a petition mechanism where 10% of signatures forces a council discussion. Your concerns should be taken seriously.
- Transparent Evaluations: What happens after you fill out a course evaluation? I want aggregated feedback published openly, so you know what to expect and coordinators become accountable.
- Free Sustainable AI: AI is here to stay. I want every FSE student to have a free Euria subscription: renewable energy, GDPR-compliant, excess heat warms Swiss homes.
- Institutional Responsibility: FSE must live up to its own values. Enough is enough.
Lada Busarcevic
- Student opportunities: More practical experience, including internships, skill training, and workshops.
- Free sustainable AI: In collaboration with the UC, we would like to provide a premium subscription for Euria.
- Better food: More affordable, diverse and nutritious options at FSE.
- Flexible attendance: With a valid reason for absences, students should not have to fail a course for missing a few tutorials.
- Education: Increased transparency around how feedback from course evaluations is implemented by professors.
- A sustainability grant for innovations, prototypes and research at FSE.
- I want to implement designated communication channels to turn YOUR feedback into action!
Madeleine Marshall
Welcome, baddie;)
- Elevating Student voices: through more transparent course evaluations, referendums, and direct communication between the council and students.
- Decolonising UM: holding UM and FSE accountable by cutting ties to genocidal institutions and increasing diversity and inclusivity in the core of our curricula.
- Quality canteen food: Students need proper nutrition at affordable prices to reach their full mental and physical capacities!
Marta Franzoi
- Better Food Elevating campus food quality while ensuring fair, transparent, and accessible pricing for all students.
- Careers & Networking Expanding access to internships, strengthening company partnerships, and creating meaningful networking opportunities.
- Your Voice Matters Ensuring student feedback is actively heard, transparently addressed, and translated into measurable action.

Selma Ahrens
- Cut all ties: FSE needs to end all cooperations with organisations connected to states found to be committing genocide under UN definitions and finally abide by its own moral code!
- Make your voice heard: Giving students the opportunity for more active participation and the chance to bring their concerns directly to the council.
- Guidance for your career: What comes after graduation? So far FSE does not provide enough guidance and opportunities for students to explore possible career paths. We want FSE to change that with internships, skills workshop and professional development events.
