<strong>AMSA</strong> INTERNATIONAL<br />
STUDENTS' NETWORK<br />
Representative groups work to mobilise the collective political capital of the emerging health<br />
workforce to advocate on issues that are important to medical students. These groups bring<br />
diverse lived experience to the <strong>AMSA</strong> community and support self-determination in health and<br />
education policy and strategy. The International Students’ Network serves as a powerful<br />
advocate for matters pertaining to international students in Australian medical schools. In<br />
Australia, 1 in 5 medical students are from overseas, and the ISN strives to represent every one<br />
of these students as effectively as possible. We provide a voice for international medical<br />
students at a national level. The goals that have been set out as the foundations for the ISN<br />
include:<br />
To advocate for all international medical students studying in Australia<br />
To provide support for graduating international students seeking internship in Australia<br />
To develop an inclusive and engaged international student community<br />
To connect current and future international medical students and to inform them of the<br />
issues currently facing international students in Australia.<br />
<strong>AMSA</strong> RURAL HEALTH<br />
<strong>AMSA</strong> Rural Health is the peak representative body for rural origin students, rural clinical school<br />
students, and for the world health interests of medical students across Australia. Our key goal<br />
is to advocate for equality when accessing healthcare and equal health outcomes for rural<br />
and remote Australians. To do so, <strong>AMSA</strong> Rural Health supports and facilitates medical<br />
students’ engagement with rural health and advocates for students regarding rural issues. We<br />
also partner with key stakeholders to advocate for the stability and support of the future rural<br />
health workforce.
