Make Universities free for all

What the petition asks
We want to make Universities accessible for all, as we think higher education should be a right not a privilege for the wealthy. End tuition fees at Universities and make higher education free and accessible for all—no debt, no barriers, just a world of opportunities.
We want the government to fund free University education because it improves society. Just like healthcare or roads, we think education benefits all of society as it may boost the economy, reduces inequality, and gives everyone a fair chance—regardless of income. We think that no one should be held back by tuition or student debt when pursuing a better future.
