Background
The Azanian Student Convention (Azasco) is a Black Consciousness
Student organisation drawing its membership from Universities,
Technikons and Colleges ( Nursing, Agricultural, Education,
Technical).
It was founded in 1990 on a resolution of the Azanian Student
Movement (Azasm). The Azanian Student Convention (Azasco) is the
official student wing of the Azanian People's Organisation (Azapo),
which is the only authentic flag bearer of black consciousness
in Azania.
It was officially launched at the Medical University of Azania (Medunsa)
in April 1991.
Aims and Objectives
1. To create a forum for Black Students to articulate and to
express their aspirations as part of the Black people.
2. To mobilise, politicise and unite students around the
liberatory ideology of Black Consciousness.
3. To encourage the involvement of the students in problems
facing their communities, as well as those facing the Black
people in general.
4. To work towards a nation-building educational system which
will instill a sense of creativity, identity and self-reliance
amongst the students of AZANIA.
5. To work towards the total transformation of the present
system in this country, and the ushering in of an anti-racist,
Socialist Republic of Azania.
