About

The Exchange is an initiative from the University of Sussex to encourage free expression, lively debate and the exchange of thoughts and ideas.

In our first-ever event, our panel will explore and question the idea of ‘Generation Snowflake.’ Is there any truth to concept of ‘snowflakes’, or is it a media construct? Is there a chilling of free speech for fear of causing offence? Do younger generations really have less resilience or are they dealing with unprecedented challenges in an increasingly complex and fast changing world?

Whatever your views, join us for a night of lively debate and discussion. Put your questions to our panel and share your thoughts.

The event will be chaired by Dr Sharif Mowlabocus, Senior Lecturer in Media and Digital Media at the University of Sussex. The panel features Jess Phillips MP, Grace Campbell (comedian, co-founder of The Pink Protest and star of Channel 4’s Riot Girls), Alon Harshak (youth worker and former coordinator of Sussex Students’ Union’s Role Models Project), Aubrey Allegretti (Political reporter and former editor-in-chief of The Badger) and Edward Wilson (University of Sussex student).

The Exchange – a place to share ideas.
