Introduction to Rex Crossley Awards Petar Kr. Velikov
IFMSA Vice-President for Activities 2015-2016 vpa@ifmsa.org
Back in 1951 Rex Crossley became the first IFMSA President. In his honor and out of the need for recognition of the hard work of IFMSA NMOs, the Rex Crossley Awards were born as an IFMSA Transnational Project during the 52nd March Meeting General Assembly in Parnu, Estonia. Today RCA are an award provided by IFMSA in recognition of the work and achievements of the most impactful Activities of IFMSA National Member Organizations. The awarded Activities have meaningful impact on the local, national and/or international society. During the 65th August Meeting General Assembly we have pre-selected 10 Activities to compete for the Rex Crossley Awards. Each of the Activities will be presented during the General Assembly as part of the RCA Presentations. The Activities will be judged based on their design, quality of implementation, evaluation methodology and impact on society by the IFMSA Standing Committee Directors of the 6 Standing Committees. In the next pages you can read an introduction to each of the top 10 Activities in IFMSA for the 65th August Meeting General Assembly! Warm regards, Petar Velikov
