UNIVERSITY students are set to launch their own federal election campaign, warning that young people are feeling disengaged from the political debate.
The National Union of Students (NUS) will use its annual education conference in Adelaide on Thursday to urge all students to make their voice heard in the run-up to the federal poll.
"Political debate has become increasingly insular over the past three years, leaving young people feeling cynical and disengaged in the process," NUS national president Jade Tyrrell says.
"It is clear decisions will be made this election about Australia's future and the kind of country that we're going to be.
"These decisions will form the Australia that today's young people will inherit."
Ms Tyrrell says the union will continue to fight funding cuts and increased tuition fees and will lobby for better income support.
But she says students also have valid answers to other issues including the treatment of asylum seekers, marriage equality and environmental policies.
