OUR ACTIVITIES

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTS

Through a continuous effort channeled into our community development and sustainable projects, we believe that we can deliver positive impacts to the society. A systematic approach was implemented into the process of putting these activities into reality. Starting with a bonding session to understand the community comprehensively, assessing the problems that are present, and finally executing an intervention to provide the appropriate methods that can be used to eradicate the problems.

NATIONAL CAMPAIGNS

As an activity-based organization and an actualization of CIMSA’s Policy Documents, we want to ensure the sustainability of what we stand for by continuously contributing through our campaigns. We have high hopes on achieving our goals in raising public awareness and advocating public matters through our campaigns as an effort in creating a larger impact. CIMSA currently holds up to 20 campaigns every year.

TRAININGS

CIMSA has developed an independent training system which synchronizes with the IFMSA. CIMSA members are not trained to become objects (trainees) but also subjects (trainers).

NATIONAL MEETINGS

National meetings serve as a forum for Indonesian medical students to discuss topics related to health, education, and other topics that are of importance to the medical students’ capacities. Every year, CIMSA holds triannual meetings in February, May, and October each named as National Leadership Summit, May Meeting, and October Meeting respectively. Core agendas in the CIMSA National Meeting include a Grand Lecture, a General Issue Update, Parallel Sessions, Trainings, Small Working Group Sessions, and a Plenary Session.
