Erguer. Estudantes da Galiza (Erguer, Wake Up. Students of Galiza in Galician language) is a Galician student union that advocates for a public, democratic, galician language, quality and antipatriarchal education. Any high school, vocational training or university student can join Erguer. Erguer also advocates for Galician independence and a Republic of Galicia.[1]
Erguer was born on 5 March 2016, at the "Colexio de Fonseca" (University of Santiago de Compostela), as the merger of the three previous nationalist student organisations, Galician Student League, AGIR and Comités.[2] Its first public action after the foundational assembly was to call for a student strike in all Galiza for 13 April.[3]
