The National Union of Students of France (''Union Nationale des Étudiants de France'' or UNEF) is the main national students' union in France. The organisation works to represent the interest of students towards the national and local Governments, the political parties, the government bodies concerned with higher education and the universities' administration. The organisation is also active on the international arena, particularly within the European Students' Union, ESU. ==History== 1907: UNEF foundation by the merging of many AGEs (''Associations Générales d'Étudiants'', Students' General Associations) from different towns at a meeting held in Lille 1946: adoption of the Charter of Grenoble which define the student as a "young intellectual worker". Since then, the UNEF has considered itself to be a part of the labour movement. The creation in France of the students' social security and welfare systems are the result of UNEF activism 1950s: the UNEF led the protest for independence of Algeria 1968: May 68 revolt. On May 27, the meeting of the UNEF, most outstanding of the events of May 68, proceeds and gathers 30.000 to 50.000 people in the Stade Sebastien Charlety. 1971 to 2001: the UNEF was split between UNEF-SE (''Solidarité Étudiante'', Students' solidarity) (linked to the French Communist Party) and UNEF-US (''Unité Syndicale'', Union Unity), which later evolved into UNEF-ID (''Indépendante et Démocratique'', Independence and democracy) (linked to the Internationalist Communist Organisation and close to the Socialist Party). 1986: the UNEFs led a victorious strike against student fees and selection at college admission 1995: major protest against a government project of minimum wage for youth lower than for other salaries 2001: the UNEFs eventually reunified under the name 'UNEF'. 2006: the UNEF and its chairman, Bruno Julliard, played the major role in students' contestation of the prime ministerDominique de Villepin]]'s Contrat première embauche. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Union Nationale des Étudiants de France」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
