05
A few hours

06
Real responsibility
Take on a role or lead an activity from September.
Who can join
Open to students at AMU and beyond
Kashmiri students at AMU are the heart of it. Kashmiris at other universities, young people in the Valley, alumni, and non-Kashmiri friends who respect the direction are all welcome at open gatherings.
The form beside this one is for AMU students. If you are elsewhere, write to us instead and we will add you to the group.
What we ask in return is plain: respect for others, discretion where it matters, and turning up when you said you would.
Privacy
A quiet way in
If you cannot be publicly linked with the collective, write privately to [email protected]. Your name appears nowhere, and your details stay in one inbox.

[email protected]Questions
Asked every term
Six plain answers before you send your note.
No. The membership form is for AMU students, but you are welcome at open gatherings either way. Students at other universities send essays, join the reading circle discussions, and start campus chapters — write to us and we will add you to the group.
