PREFACE

Dear prospective partner,

We appreciate your interest in becoming a part of Asian Medical Students’ Association (AMSA International) 2021-2022.

Since 1985, AMSA International has developed into an eminent medical student organisation that represents and promotes medical students’ interests in multiple fields, forming a big family and creating new possibilities spanning Asia-Pacific, Oceania, UK and beyond. Only through the assistance that is offered, continuous support by our partners has AMSA International been able to effectively serve the students. This is why AMSA International always aims to grow and excel in the future, together with our partners. AMSA International has always been displaying passion, determination and professionalism in each and every activity that we organise, to maximise the benefits that we can bring to our members, our partners, our community and the future of healthcare globally.

Each year, AMSA International hosts various impactable activities which includes bi-annual international conferences, student exchange programs and competition. Besides, we have our own publication which includes a peer reviewed biomedical journal and newsletter. Two of our most attractive flagship events would be the East Asian Medical Students’ Conference, which will be held in Egypt in January 2022, and Asian Medical Students’ Conference, which will be held in South Korea in July 2022. These are good opportunities for our partners to engage with our medical students. AMSA International also has individual chapters that hold numerous exciting activities throughout the year. AMSA International is always venturing for new ideas and opportunities to equip our members with knowledge, values, skills and network to be a competent future healthcare professional with leadership qualities.

Finally, We would like to express my sincere thanks for your interest in joining us once again. We believe our proposal will provide an exciting marketing opportunity for your business and we would relish the opportunity of partnering with you. Please do not hesitate to get in touch to discuss more about how AMSA International can bring extensive benefits to your company/ organisation. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Warmest regards,

ABOUT

AMSA INTERNATIONAL

4 | about

Our Background

Asian Medical Students’ Association (AMSA) International is a peak representative organisation for medical students from across Asia, the Asia-Pacific, and beyond.

AMSA has trained future doctors-to-be to share knowledge, undertake activities and social services and create international friendships.

AMSA International was officially founded at the sixth Asian Medical Students’ Conference (AMSC), which was held at Manila, the Philippines in 1985. Enthusiastic AMSA members from nine different nations – Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand, gathered at the conference and founded the prestigious international organisation. The Member nations increased gradually as the founding members of AMSA inspired neighbouring countries with its admirable vision.

Today, AMSA International has grown into a dynamic student-led, not-for-profit, non-political organisation. With members and friends spanning the globe, AMSA International has branched and introduced many exciting subsidiaries and activities to be undertaken regionally and nationally within the Member nations.

Some of them include the testimonial Asian Medical Students’ Conferences (AMSC), East-Asian Medical Students’ Conferences (EAMSC), Asian Medical Students’ Exchange Programme (AMSEP), academic and health awareness projects. We also produce student publications and liaises with the World Health Organisation (WHO), the Association of Medical Doctors of Asia (AMDA) and many other medical student organisations like European Medical Students’ Association (EMSA) and Federation of African Medical Students’ Association (FAMSA). With our amazing partners, we were able to have inter-organisational collaborations of academic, sociocultural and public health coverage, not to forget the exchange projects that have managed to foster trans-continental long-lasting friendships.

AMSA International was established to promote the interest and welfare of Asian medical students. It aims to nurture unity and promote profound inter-personal relationships amongst its chapters and members under them, with hopes to encourage sustainable cooperation among future doctors in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. Unequivocally, AMSA International also upholds and embraces humanitarian values and medical ethics through its activities.

CONFERENCES

There are two conferences held yearly under AMSA International.

These biannual conferences are managed and supervised by the Director of Membership and Development (Conference). Two chapters are elected yearly to host the conferences of AMSA International. Each conference features a specific theme.

Asian Medical Students’ Conference (AMSC)

Asian Medical Students’ Conference has over 30 years of history and consists of Academic, Sociocultural and Community Service programmes. The conference is held annually in the middle of each year (late June to July period) for one week, and is hosted by a local AMSA chapter in one of their main cities. As the hallmark activity of AMSA International, it draws hundreds of participants yearly from Asia-Pacific and beyond. The next AMSC will be held in South Korea in 2022.

The Annual General Meeting of AMSA International will be held at this yearly conference. The Annual General Meeting imperatively served as the regeneration point of the International Executive Board (I-EB). In the event when AMSC is not held, the Annual General Meeting will be held before the 20th of July in the same year. conferences | 13

East Asian Medical Students’ Conference (EAMSC)

The East Asian Medical Students’ Conference is another conference unique to AMSA International. The EAMSC is also held yearly during winter. It encompasses the three programmes pillars of AMSA International, similar to Asian Medical Students' Conference. It challenges students to think beyond what is learnt at university through various academic and cultural activities which explore a nominated conference theme.

The next EAMSC will be held by AMSA Egypt in January 2022.

Due to the safety concerns during COVID-19 pandemic, this event will be held hybrid.

PROGRAMMES BY AMSA INTERNATIONAL STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAMMES ASIAN MEDICAL STUDENTS’ EXCHANGE PROGRAMME (AMSEP)

These exchanges are commonly named as European-Asian Medical Students’ Exchange Programme (EAMSEP) and Federation of African-Asian Medical Students’ Exchange Programme (FAMSEP) respectively.

The subsidiary generally functions to coordinate and promote public health activities intended for further development of AMSA International at chapter level, and global health initiatives at international level.

There will be a training programme and many local or international workshops for partners to get involved.

TRAVEL ASSISTANCE

GRANT (TAG)

The AMSA International Travel Assistance Grant (TAG) was initiated in 2005, following the recognition that many delegates were unable to attend AMSA International conferences due to financial hardships. TAG has been available at every AMSA International conference since, providing delegates in need of financial assistance the opportunity to attend. It is our hope that recipients of the TAG will greatly benefit from the experience and encourage others from their country to participate in future AMSA International conferences. activities | 21
