M O T I V AT I O N L E T T E R Growing up extremely self-conscious, I had a tendency to let others seize their stage, whereas I merely followed the crowd. With growing older, I now know that another kind of person is growing inside me, which I never expected to happen one fine day, I was approached by someone to participate in a workshop. Little did I know, on that day I made last-minute decision that I did not expect to bring so much light into my life. That workshop was my first TNT in late 2015, when I had just begun my journey to initiate an LC in my NMO. It was because of my participation in that famous backbone-builder workshop that I opened my eyes and became inspired to develop my LC, especially in member engagement through various Capacity building initiatives especially with our renowned tiered curriculum in peer education and mentoring. Yes, it is the same peer education programme that we know as the heart of our system known as Capacity Building, a term not familiar to many outside IFMSA but one very close to the hearts of those within the Federation and its development. I believe that the backbone of our organization is in its people — our members spread across the globe. I would like to think of them as LEGO bricks, parts of a complete playset. Sometimes, it might be quite the challenge to construct a specific structure due to different colors and forms of the bricks and pieces. I believe that here is where Capacity Building has a fundamental role — to bridge differences and realise that it is an essential part of something so much bigger than individual pieces. This certainly has to be done with the proper intervention adhering to established standards. Thus, proper identification and prioritisation to be tackled based on assessments to the NMOs has to be taken into consideration in order to develop the educational system of our CB not only to ensure the maximal impact is being made but also to fulfill the needs of the members in NMOs. Ashandi I, A shandi Triyoga Triyoga, a fifth-year Indonesian medical student with an immense interest in human and organizational development, coupled with a tremendous passion to our beloved Federation, am a suitable candidate to be the next Capacity Building Regional Assistant for Asia-Pacific for this term. Nearly 3 years have passed since I stepped in into this realm of learning and self-discovery called IFMSA, and I intend on continuing my journey in serving the Federation through this position. From my humble beginnings as a founding LC President, followed by my term as Regional Coordinator on a national level, I continued my exploration the world on a broader scale through an opportunity to participate in the International Committee of a Trans-NMO CB activity called ACTION for 2 terms and finally, an ongoing SWG for the long awaited Asia-Pacific Strategy. Besides being in positions, I also have had the opportunity to experience as a trainer and as a trainee in IFMSA-level CB workshops such as PHLT, TMET, PRET and also several other TNTs that have inspired me to channel my passion for our Asia-Pacific region to grow and develop in terms of capacity building. All of the experiences that I mentioned above, were earned as a result of the decision that I made to become a “backbone” which triggered a CASCADE will be my main focus areas if life-changing “cascade” effect. I am chosen for this position; to Collaborate, Assess, Support, Connect, Assist, Develop and Empower which all will be elaborated in details through my Plan of Actions. Nevertheless, all my plans will amount to nothing unless I can be the LEGO builder that constructs the bridges that will connect the Asia-Pacific Regional Team and Capacity Building International Team for the next term. In closing, I have decided to challenge myself to use my experiences, insights, and ideas to create a big impact and to become a witness of the rise many more influential backbones f r o m our beloved region, Asia-Pacific.
