We are a student-run movement based at Cambridge University. And we are dedicated to fighting back against the growing threats of pseudoscience, misinformation and anti-intellectualism.
We organise speakers, panels, protests and counter-protests, as well as facilitate open and respectful discussions on these issues for both students and the wider community.
