• Freedom of Inquiry:  AASTMT neutrality supports an environment where students and faculty can explore diverse ideas and engage in respectful debate without fear of institutional reprisal or pressure to conform.
• Avoiding Politicization:  By staying neutral on external issues, universities prevent themselves from becoming politicized entities and maintain their role as a neutral forum for critical thinking.
• Promoting Transparency and Accountability: AASTMT encourages transparency in university management and operations.

7- How AASTMT Promotes Neutrality

• Creating Spaces for Discussion: 

AASTMT holds some events that serve as neutral grounds for discussions on various policy and social issues. 

• Providing Resources and Support: 

AASTMT offers personalized outreach, resources, and support for students, faculty, and staff who are impacted by distressing external events, without taking a definitive institutional stance on the event itself. 

• Encouraging Open Inquiry: 

The fundamental goal is to foster an environment where academic inquiry, free debate, and open discussion can thrive.

Political Science Day

Multilateralism's importance has increased nowadays. The international arena has proved that without collaboration and integration, the world will face many hardships. Our students believe that through knowledge, we can reach many settlements. The aim of political science day was to visualize the status quo by representing various numbers of states and international organizations. The booths held a different round of questions for the students from Victoria College and the AAST American diploma students. This boosted their knowledge of data ranging from data-to-day politics to world politics.
