Standing Committee on Sexual And Reproductive Health and Rights Including HIV and AIDS IT​

Dear SCORAngels,

Can’t believe it’s that time of year again! One year ago, we were exactly where you are at the moment – going through the role descriptions, weighing on our past experiences, and reflecting on our passion for SRHR.

The past year serving as the SCORA Capacity Building Development Assistant and SCORA External Affairs Assistant has been one of the best years of our lives filled with countless challenges and personal growth. The things we learned and the skills we gained along the way were incomparable to anything that came our way before. On top of that – it gave us a home away from home. We got the chance to meet people who continued to inspire us and constantly leave us in awe of their knowledge and passion. Serving as SCORA IT members gave us a platform to advocate for the visions we believe in on an international level and provided us with eye-opening opportunities to see what happens outside of our world as medical students.

You might be doubting – is this for me? If you are passionate about making a difference in the world of SRHR, if you wish to make friends who are equally passionate about Global Health as you are, if you want to learn more about the matters that contribute to inequitable health outcomes in SRHR and how to combat them, 

We can guarantee that this is for you. Can’t wait to have you on the team!

Consensual Red hugs,
