IFMSA at the European Youth Forum

IFMSA is a full member of the European Youth Forum, accessing to a platform that aggregates around 100 youth organizations, in which we discuss and learn about youth rights, non-formal education and many other important topics.
Kornelija and I gave input in several discussions, namely the inclusion of Universal Health Coverage in the European Youth Forum’s Work Plan; while drafting a Policy Resolution about the TTIP we raised awareness about the potential negative impact of this agreement on health-related issues, such as access to Medicines and Surgical Procedures; we actively participated in the elections’ discussions and outreached with many Youth Councils from Europe that will definitely help and work with our European National Members Organizations.
Surely we will put a lot of effort to continue following-up the European Youth Forum’s work and we will try to put health on the european youth agenda, so we can continue increasing the quality of our advocacy at the regional and global level.
