Welcome to Medsin.org
Educate -- Advocate -- Act
Medsin is a network of students with an interest in health, with branches at universities across the UK. Medsin's Activities aim to promote health as well as to act upon and educate students about health inequalities in our local and global communities. Read our Vision and Mission here, or find out more about how Medsin fits together here.
Medsin focusses on three areas, and from the local up to the global level:
- Education - of ourselves, fellow students, and the wider community of health inequities and how we can tackle them;
- Advocacy - for action by local, national, and global actors to remove barriers to health for all;
- Action - at the grass-roots level within our communities, mobilising students to take action.
Interested? Through getting involved in our Branches, Activities or events, you can join us in working towards "a fair and just world, in which equity in health is a reality for all". We also encourage students to get involved with issues that they feel are important or under-represented in their curricula, such as poverty, trade and access to medicines.
