For this research, I utilized semi-structured interviews as the research method. I used open-ended questions to allow the interviewees to express their thoughts and experiences freely. This allowed for a more in-depth exploration of the motivations and leadership roles of Zama Zulu within the CSRC Arts and Culture Council.
Ethical considerations were made during the interview process, ensuring that the interviewees were comfortable and willing participants. Informed consent was obtained before the interviews began, and confidentiality was maintained throughout the process. The interviews were conducted in a respectful and professional manner, with a focus on listening to the perspectives and experiences of the interviewees.
The discussions/interviews were conducted in person, as well as over the phone or video conferencing due to logistical constraints. Notes were taken during the interviews to record responses and key points discussed. Any sensitive information shared during the interviews was handled with care and confidentiality.
Difficulties encountered during the interview process included scheduling conflicts and time constraints. These were resolved by being flexible with interview times and accommodating the availability of the interviewees. Additionally, technical issues such as poor internet connection were addressed by finding alternative communication methods or rescheduling interviews as needed.

The Campus Student Representative Council (CSRC) serves as the voice for all students within their UFS campus, engaging in negotiations and interactions with UFS structures and the Institutional Student Representative Council on shared concerns. As the overarching organization, the CSRC unifies student committees, clubs, and societies at each campus. Through interviews, we will explore her motivations for joining the movement and her leadership role within it.
The question I conducted are as follows: what made you run for this specific portfolio in the CSRC? If you had to have an alternative portfolio, what would it be? What superpowers would you choose if you could have any? Name someone you admire and why? What is the role of social influence processes in social change? Do you think we need social movements and why? Last but not least do you think we should always involve conflict for a movement to be heard?
To conclude, every good leader has to have a positive impact on the people they lead. When times goes by it should be visible that the movement is growing and there is a huge change.
