✨🧡 Thank you! 🧡✨

The AGHI 2023 team wants to say a massive thank you to our phenomenal guest speakers, delegates and collaborators! From beginning to the end, it was such an informative and engaging event. Every presentation from our guest speakers was so inspiring, and gave us the tools to empower us to continue making changes in our communities! Our delegates were all so passionate, and it was clear their hearts truly aligned with tackling NCDs globally. It was truly a spectacular time and again, a massive thanks to our in-person and online delegates, MULMIG and their marvellous event, as well as the plethora of wonderful guest speakers that gave their time to educate and upskill all of us. With all that you have gained and learnt from this year's intensive, we hope to see you all at our next AMSA Global Health Intensive!!!

❗️🧡🤩 AGHI 2023 🤩🧡❗️

The AMSA Global Health Intensive (AGHI) is back for 2023!!
AGHI is an annual global health workshop run over one weekend in mid-year (12th-13th August), and will be held in Melbourne🏙 this year. It is AMSA Global Health’s ✨️premier up-skilling event!✨️ AGHI focuses squarely on practical skills and hands-on, interactive learning and action-focused workshops on a selected theme. This year, this is centred around food and nutrition🍊, and the impacts of non-communicable diseases🫀 (NCDs) from a global health perspective, and what we can do as future doctors to tackle this prevalent and preventable issue. We hope the workshops provide delegates the opportunity to upskill themselves, giving them the tools to go on to create real, 🧡meaningful change🧡 in their communities and across the world.

Keep an eye out for more information about registrations to come soon!!
