Student Representatives

LAHP’s Student Representatives play a crucial role in working with students and the LAHP team to enhance our students’ experience, share ideas about LAHP’s work (including on training & cohort development, collaborations & partnerships, and equality, diversity & inclusion), and raise any concerns.

LAHP’s Student Representatives attend three Staff-Student Feedback Forum meetings each year. Two Student Representatives attend LAHP’s two Governing Council meetings each year. Student Representatives also convene town hall meetings and facilitate feedback through other means prior to each Staff-Student Feedback Forum meeting. Student Representatives also take a leading role in applying for funding from LAHP to support student activities.
