Student en Stad is a local political party in Groningen in the Netherlands.[2] Founded in November 1993,[3] it is one of just a few student political parties that have been able to win seats in Dutch local elections, with other similar and successful examples being Studenten Techniek In Politiek in Delft and Student & Starter in Utrecht.[4] The party currently holds one seat on the Groningen municipal council.[5]
Although the party's general focus is on student issues, they have not confined themselves to single issue student politics, but rather help decision-making on a range of local issues in Groningen.[6] [7] [8] [9]
