Our policy on paying students

‍We believe that students should be paid for the work they do and the articles they write.

How this works in practice is difficult.

For too long, platforms have avoided the issue and haven't paid students, even when they had the funds to. Relying on free work by students shouldn't be accepted as the norm.

Although we currently don't have the capacity to pay students, we are committed to building a sustainable platform where we have the available capital to invest in student talent and build a best in class platform at the same time. We are re-investing all money right back into yPolitics.

When we can pay our team and writers, we will. That's a promise.
