TAPP 2019 - Nepal
Association of Medical Doctors of Asia (AMDA) organized the first Triple A Program Training (AMSA-AMDA-AMSAAC) in Nepal (24th February - 4th March 2019).
This is an amazing opportunity since we will be exposed directly to the hospital and refugee camp in Nepal. Members of AMSA are invited for this training, hence I would like for RCs to help relay this training opportunity to their respective chapter.
Since we have limited seats for this program there would be some selections required, therefore please submit it before 20th December 2018 to loamda@amsa-international.org.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Below I attached the details and files required for application.

On 1 December 2018, WHO will join global partners to commemorate World AIDS Day under the theme “Know Your Status”. This will also be an occasion to celebrate the 30th anniversary of World AIDS Day – a pioneering global health campaign first initiated by WHO in 1988.
WHO advocacy and communication for World AIDS Day 2018 will aim to achieve the following objectives:
1. Urge people to know their HIV infection status through testing, and to access HIV prevention, treatment and care services
2. Urge policy-makers to promote a “health for all” agenda for HIV and related health services, such as tuberculosis (TB), hepatitis and noncommunicable diseases.
Today is the World AIDS Day, marking its 30th anniversary! This year’s slogan “Know Your Status” urges all of us to get tested, as about 9.4 million people all over the world, continue to live with undetected HIV.
Stigma and discrimination still deters people from taking an HIV test. Many people only get tested after becoming ill and symptomatic.
We, as medical students of Europe @emsa.europe, Asia @amsa_intl and Africa @official _famsa , come together to encourage all of you to get tested and know your status!
Join us in this World AIDS Day to raise awareness about the importance of knowing our status and calling for the removal of all barriers to accessing HIV testing.
Together, we can be the generation to finally end AIDS!
