Divest Borders Action Guide

We are a student movement fighting to get our universities to divest from companies that profit from the border regime and from the human rights abuses inflicted on migrating people in the UK and across the globe.

This Action Guide explains the context, aims and strategy behind our Divest Borders campaign - everything you need to get started at your university!
Divest Borders Student Union Motion template

Student Unions are key democratic channels that students can use to bring about change at their university. We have written a template Student Union Motion and a guide to pass the SU Motion that you can use to gain the backing of your Student Union and build support for Divest Borders on your campus.
Divest Borders Flier

Whether you want to recruit new members for your group or engage folks on your campus, you can print these Divest Borders fliers out and use them for your campaign.

Campaign Targets

We are demanding that all universities withdraw all investments from companies engaged in or supporting violence relating to detention, deportation, surveillance or the use of force in border control. Our Border Divestment List (BDL) details the 70 companies from which all universities must divest and is publicly available along with the accompanying methodology. Get in touch if you want to know which companies have links to your uni!
