Dear SCOPHeroes around the globe, A Welcome Message by the SCOPH Director

Dear SCOPHeroes around the globe,

I can’t believe that we are already creating our first survival kit for the term! Time really does fly. I welcome you all to the March Meeting, and more so, the SCOPH Sessions. IFMSA General Assemblies are a very unique opportunity for medical students from all over the world to meet and discuss global health issues.

I invite you to attend the meeting with lots of energy and enthusiasm to learn and interact with other individuals interested in public health. Be prepared to delve deeper into public health than you would inside the classroom. Be openminded to receive knowledge, attitudes and practices from different parts of the world. The knowledge and skills that you acquire ultimately depends on your own motivation to learn. Seize this opportunity! I hope that you will make the most of the assembly in Rwanda. Meet people and network with future health leaders. Grow your appreciation for global health. Have fun. Enjoy every bit-sessions, theme event, plenaries, social programs etc.

See you soon in Kigali, Sarah Maitho
