The University of Warwick’s student newspaper, The Boar, has been celebrated at the Student Publication Association National Awards. Winners included PPE student Zoe Barret, who won Best Creative Piece.

We are delighted to announce that two 2023 PPE graduates have won Outstanding Student Contribution Awards (OSCAs) at this year’s graduation ceremony.

The OSCAs recognise and celebrate the outstanding contributions of Warwick's students. They not only excel academically, but also find the time to campaign for good causes, fundraise, start small business, and work with local charities.

Find out more about the work Bethan Smith and Kieran Barry won their OSCAs for.

PPE student Loshini attended the Y7 Summit in Japan in 2023, with support from the PPE programme. Youth under 40 from a diverse background, such as researchers, government officials, and students, convene ahead of G7 and G20 Summits and make policy recommendations by submitting the communique to G7 and G20. Y7 & Y20 Summits aim to propose solutions to various challenges faced by today’s international community by promoting mutual understanding among youth at the forefront of the world.

Loshini says: “As the UK economy delegate I aimed to target the needs of young people amidst the cost of living crisis and an increasing lack of employability. Alongside delegates from across the G7 countries we integrated these needs and also considered the importance of sustainability and working towards a circular economy."
