Become a Student Ambassador 2025-2026!

To all our students, future leaders and first-hand witnesses to the rising tide of antisemitism sweeping across our UK universities today… CAA is re-launching its Student Ambassador Programme for 2025-2026!

Why should you apply?

Since 7th October 2023, universities have fast become a notorious breeding ground for the spread of antisemitism that we have seen across British society. The levels of intimidation of Jewish students, attacks on Jewish identity, calls to violence and endorsement of terror organisations has meant that students are facing the worst rise in antisemitism in living memory.

Though this year has brought unprecedented challenges, it has also proven the resilience and excellence of the student community here in the UK who are tirelessly working every day to curb the spread of hate and intimidatory behaviour and hold their institutions of learning and safeguarding accountable to their responsibilities. In so doing, our students are becoming pillars of our community, standing with pride in their Jewish identity and recognising that this should not pose a threat to their safety or the safety of their peers. Antisemitism has no place at a university, an institution founded on tolerance, openness, peaceful debate and the pursuit of truth.

Becoming a CAA Student Ambassador is a tremendous opportunity not only to stand as a stalwart activist against antisemitism, but also to develop key career-enhancing skills and experiences that are valuable for life. Participants will learn to build a community support network that enables them to facilitate their work with CAA on campus. Students will host events and collaborate with external stakeholders as part of their strategy development and forward-thinking projects, which participants will present at the end of the year.

What should you expect

The year will begin with antisemitism training, to ensure that students are given the most updated information and statistics about antisemitism in the UK today. Students will also be taught the nuances of antisemitism, and how it spreads and mutates, giving participants the tools to be active in the fight against antisemitism wherever it surfaces in student life. You will gain opportunities to work within our CAA office in London, meet our expert team and round off the year with an exclusive two-day summer roundtable event, featuring esteemed speakers and expert panellists.

During a deeply significant period for our country, with unprecedented levels of anti-Jewish hate permeating the student world, this is an opportunity to stand up to intimidation and hostility and join the fight against antisemitism in this country – all whilst acquiring and enhancing tangible knowledge and transferable skills for future career opportunities and progression.

A note from our Chief Executive

“During a deeply significant period for our country, with unprecedented levels of anti-Jewish hate sweeping the student world, this is an opportunity to stand up to intimidation and hostility where it is so often disguised or ignored, and join the fight against antisemitism – all whilst enhancing tangible knowledge and skills that stand participants in great stead to accelerate their careers. We look forward to bringing more students into the heart of our work, solidifying our channels of support to students, and amplifying the voice of our future leaders.”

– Gideon Falter, Chief Executive

“Being an ambassador for CAA has been such a meaningful experience- allowing me to do my bit when it feels like there’s nothing I can really do. As a representative for my campus, I have developed many skills and learnt so much from this experience.”

Sadie - CAA Ambassador, Birmingham University

“If you have a lot of nervous Jewish energy and you don’t know what to do with it, working with the CAA is a great option. Being a student ambassador helps you feel more proactive, which is incredibly important in times like these. It’s easy to feel isolated and helpless when you face antisemitism alone. If you have the CAA behind you, as well as all the other ambassadors, that loneliness gives way to a sense of community.”

Natalie - CAA Ambassador, Royal Holloway

“Being a CAA Student Ambassador this past year has not only empowered me to speak out against antisemitism on campus, but also given me a deeper understanding of the vital work CAA does across legal, educational, and policy spheres. Through planning events, engaging in discussions, and working closely with the team, I developed practical skills and gained insight into how effective advocacy and legal action can create real change.”

Yasmina - CAA Ambassador, University College London

“Being an ambassador at the CAA has been an enlightening experience, the most important of which was educating myself, not just about antisemitism itself, but about the community at the heart of CAA. Fighting for a cause is meaningless without understanding and caring about the actual people impacted, and CAA has allowed me to grow beyond my comfort zone, making friends and making an impact on real people. I am forever grateful for the opportunity CAA has granted me to impact the community, even in a small way, and would recommend the programme to people who are keen to do better, not for themselves, but for the people around them.”

Harry - CAA Ambassador, University College London

“My experience on the Ambassador Programme with Campaign Against Antisemitism was truly eye-opening. It exposed me to the harsh reality of how deeply antisemitism continues to crawl through our streets and institutions, often in ways that are subtle, insidious, and dangerously normalized. Through the programme, I came to better understand how antisemitism not only stands on its own, but also how it fuels and is fuelled by certain forms of anti-Israel sentiment.”

Noa - CAA Ambassador, London School of Economics

“Being a student ambassador has given me both the confidence and the tools to tackle antisemitism head on. Developing a project I’m passionate about with CAA was not only exciting but also proved valuable for my prospective careers. It is a program I would recommend to all students regardless of whether you’re Jewish or not.”

Daniella - CAA Ambassador, University of Exeter
