Do you want to support or comment on a petition online?
e-Petitioner allows you to support a petition by adding your name and
address online.
Information about the subject is also provided, to put the petition in
context and help you decide whether to sign.
You can also see who else has supported the petition (name and country
only) or join in a discussion about it online.

Do you want to use the Internet to petition KCLSU?
e-Petitioner allows you to have your petition live on the Internet, rather
than just on paper. This way, your petition and supporting information
can be made available to a potentially much wider audience, giving you
the opportunity to gather more names to support the petition.
A petition may gather signatures in both forms - you can have a paper
version and an online version, although repeat signatures will be removed.
Each e-Petition also has its own discussion forum, where visitors and
signatories can discuss the petition and surrounding issues online. There
is also space for supporting information, so that you can add any background
necessary and put your petition in context. See the list of current e-petitions
After the e-petition has been submitted to KCLSU, you can return to this site to check its progress and also get feedback from the principal petitioner.
Only your name and country will appear on the website. The other details
you give us are needed by KCLSU to validate
your signature. This is the same information required for a paper petition.
Your details will only be used by KCLSU and the International Teledemocracy
Centre (ITC) who host the e-Petitions System, unless you have given permission
for your details to be passed on to the principal petitioner. Your details
will not be used for any purposes other than e-Petitioner, unless you
have expressly given permission otherwise.
If you wish to sign an e-petition after it has been closed to signatures
online, you can contact KCLSU by email and request that
your name be added.
Email: enquiries@kclsu.org
After a petition is closed signatures online, you can no longer make
comments in the discussion forum. However, these will still be available
for the public to read.
