Welcome
Dearest SCOPHeroes,
Welcome to the PHLT in Mahdia, Tunisia!
Public Health Leadership Training is a workshop to empower healthcare students and public health enthusiasts to be leaders. You have a vision, you want to make a change, you want to do something; the PHLT is here to enable you to do just that. It provides you the skills and knowledge needed to be a Public Health Leader.
From realising one's’ own leadership and personality style to team dynamics, it will equip one with the skills to be work within an manage a team to work together for a common goal. With activity management skills from the basics to advanced the workshop enables one to practically implement their ideas. The unique aspect of this workshop is not only the content and knowledge but the actually practise during the workshop .It is about witnessing the skills practically unfold during teamwork and implementing the knowledge to compose and present wonderful projects by the end of the three days.
AMR is one of the most crucial public health issues of our time. More than 10 million people are dying because of it and the number is only expected to increase manyfolds. It is the irreversible damage that we, now, need to do something about. With the basics of Public Health and knowledge on AMR participants will be able to tackle and find solutions AMR variantly in their own countries and localities.
Atlast, what I want to say is it all starts with a vision; a vision for a better public health system; a vision for change and vision for healthier and happier communities and we are here to translate that vision into a reality together.
So keep those visions alive and passion burning and we as the current and future leaders will make a change for the better.
I wish I was there, I am sending you loads of orange love and hugs.
Wishing you a successful and memorable PHLT! :D
SCOPHly yours, Nishwa SCOPH-Director 2017/18
Dearest PHLT participants,
Welcome to the Tunisian Training Camp! My name is Amal Abayed, a 22-year- old medical student in the University of Medicine of Tunis. It’s a pleasure to introduce to you the Public Health Leadership Training (PHLT) Survival Kit.
Under the roof of the World Health Students’ Alliance (WHSA), Medical, Dental, Veterinary and Pharmacy students, coming from different backgrounds, are gathered in this workshop for one main cause: Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). It’s high time we worked hand in hand, to tackle this public health issue that has started consuming the Tunisian society. Associa-Med has defined its vision and missions based on one main pillar which is medical students.
I read once
« The way to change the world is through individual
responsibility and taking local action in your own community. Bridges.
» - Jeff
Therefore, I strongly believe that equipping ourselves with knowledge, skills and values is capable of having both short and long-time effects. I invite you all to embark on this adventure till the end, to savour SCOPH special moments and become a SCOPHero: a motivated leader and advocate in the field of public health. I hope you will find this survival kit useful and would like to thank everyone for being determined to join us on this PHLT workshop.
‘It’s Public Health that brings us all together! ’ Make it special! Looking forward to meeting each one of you in Mahdia! On Behalf of the SCOPH National Team,
Orange love, Amal NPO 2017/18

INTRODUCING THE WORKSHOP ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE Ever more we are tending on introducing a specific Public Health theme as a leading thread throughout the PHLT. This theme is chosen depending on regional but also national priorities, and individual strengths and areas of expertise of the facilitators. Based on the World Health Students’ Alliance (WHSA) on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), we have decided to bring the alliance to a national level by working with other Tunisian Associations such as TADS* , ATEP* and IVSA* . Therefore, achieve a better impact on the Tunisian society through working on a large scale. This is the reason why we have chosen AMR, which is a very challenging Public Health area in Tunisia, as the theme of our PHLT. Tunisia as part of the EMR region, although it is not using antimicrobials for animals (farming, etc.) as much as other world regions, is still strongly affected by the global issue that AMR is presenting today. The main issue in our country is antimicrobial misuse : self-medication with antimicrobials (antibiotics in particular), being over-the-counter medications obtained without a prescription, or by irrational prescription by physicians.
PHLT
In Tunisia, anyone can buy antibiotics from Drug Stores without a previous Medical Doctor’s prescription and that's usually what people do. Even Medical Students (Future Medical Doctors) aren't aware of the threat of misuse of antibiotics. We believe it's of our duty as a Health Organization to raise awareness of Antimicrobial Resistance.
All the mentioned factors are key contributors to Antimicrobial Resistance, which is increasing dramatically with multidrug resistant strains being more common throughout the world. Aim : This workshop aims to train SCOPHians and others to actively take leadership roles within the field of Public Health. Moreover, it will train participants in specific fields closely related to IFMSA and Public Health work, such as specifics on Activity management. Complementary to this, it will aim to aid the participants build knowledge about themes that are priorities to their Regions so they will be able to apply what they have learned not only on a ‘theoretical’, but also on a practical, local level. We are expecting participants from different organizations :
Associa-Med
IVSA
ATEP
