National Project

Each year the National Project unites Global Health Groups (GHG) across Australia in working towards a common goal. At the Global Health Conference the GHN selects a focus for the coming year. GHGs can elect to participate and share resources through the GHN to maximise our impact on community health.

Library Aid Project 2009-2010

The National Library Aid Project aims to form partnerships with under-resourced medical schools around the world. We endeavour to support the medical professionals of the future by donating medical textbooks and other educational resources to our partner schools. This initiative will foster both international and regional cooperation between medical schools.

 

Red Party 2008-2009

Western Australia Medical Students’ Society Red Party
The 2009-2010 National Project was the Red Party. 13 GHGs hosted a ‘Red Party’ that raised awareness and total of $88 022 for HIV/AIDS support and research. The Red Party theme was adopted from Interhealth at the University of Western Australia. Each GHG determined their own expression of the Red Party, from: week-long celebrations, to nightclub boogies, sit down dinners, educational seminars and condom raffles. However, through the GHN each GHG was able to share resources and solidarity in being part of something greater.
