FLA Student Committee
Many college and university students want to live in a world where workers’ rights are protected, and workplaces are fair and safe. These students aim to make this a reality through their academic study, campus leadership, and extracurricular activities.
FLA supports college students dedicated to human rights through a student committee that provides opportunities for real-world learning, professional development, and networking with peers, subject matter experts, and FLA staff.
I have recommended the committee to classmates, because it was a great way to learn from industry professionals outside of school and meet students from other schools who have the same passions.
Guest speaker sessions
Monthly sessions during the academic year offer students the opportunity to network with peers, learn from subject matter experts, and interact with professionals and academics in the fields of human rights and social responsibility.
Access to resources
Committee members gain access to FLA e-Learning modules, invitations to board and University Caucus meetings, and opportunities to attend other events. Students receive regular emails with resources and timely information.
Professional development projects
FLA supports committee members who choose to contribute to the conversation on business and human rights through a professional development project. In past years, students developed a journal compiled of research articles. Previous professional development projects from committee members are available below.
I really enjoyed hearing about the career pathways of the guest speakers. I found that there are many more ways to break into social responsibility positions than I thought, and it was inspiring to hear how each path led to personal fulfillment and impact in different ways. It definitely made me more open-minded going into my job search and curious about positions I hadn’t previously considered.
Committee application process
Undergraduate or graduate students at FLA member colleges and universities in North America are eligible to apply for the FLA Student Committee.
Ideal candidates demonstrate a personal, professional, and/or academic interest in human rights, labor conditions, and social responsibility. Students should be able to commit three to five hours per month during the academic year.
