Complaints & Issue Resolution

Enactus UK & Ireland provide a free of charge opportunity for participation in the programme to university students and Higher Education Institutions and as such holds no service obligations to either parties. Our terms and conditions of engagement with students, student unions, societies/teams (Enactus university teams) and university staff are defined and bound by the ‘Collaboration Agreement’ with that university, student union and society as well as the Enactus Team Handbook with which every registered Enactus university team member (student) must act in accordance.

Any issues and conflicts arising within and among Enactus university team members must first be resolved by following appropriate Student Union or Guild rules and bylaws for conflict resolution amongst student societies. Enactus UK & Ireland will only intervene on the basis that all attempts have been made to resolve an issue which puts the sustainability of the Enactus university team at risk. In this case the request for support would be made to Enactus UK & Ireland by the Enactus the registered University Advisors only. It is up to the Enactus UK & Ireland team to decide whether or not they are able to support.

It is important that any fraud, misconduct, or wrongdoing by Enactus UK & Ireland staff or others working on behalf of the charity is reported and properly dealt with. Enactus UK & Ireland therefore requires staff members to raise any concerns that they may have about the conduct of others in the charity (or Trading Subsidiaries) or the way in which the organisation is run. This policy sets out the way in which individual staff members may raise any concerns that they have and how those concerns will be dealt with.
