Alliances and Collaborations

"Together we are stronger, our voices louder, and the synergy of our actions more powerful."

Why you should collaborate with us

“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”

― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

The sum of the whole is bigger than the sum of each part. Together we can achieve much more than we can alone. 

We are happy to share our resources with our allies and any area of expertise we can provide.

We have a large group of students from all over the world involved in our movement. Every individual has something new and different to contribute to SAC. We are an amalgamation of creative minds and diligent souls working towards a common cause.

We, at SAC are always eager to form alliances with organisations.

Our allies promote our work or collaborate with us on events, content creation, mutual promotion, funding, providing professional mentorship and much more. We are always open to conventional and unconventional ideas to join hands
