Students at the heart
of a healthier future.
The Ethiopian Medical Students’ Association is a student-led, nongovernmental, nonprofit organization supporting medical students in Ethiopia.
Why we come together
Becoming a doctor involves more than acquiring clinical knowledge. It also means understanding people, working with others and responding thoughtfully to local and global health challenges.
EMSA-Ethiopia provides a platform for students to build those capabilities while engaging with medical education and community health.
Support the personal and professional development of medical students, and create opportunities for them to contribute to society.
Medical students equipped with the knowledge and skills to help improve healthcare in their communities and beyond.
A community across medical schools
Local chapters connect students within their institutions. The national association brings this community together around shared learning, participation and service.
Contact the association to find out about your local chapter, current membership arrangements or opportunities to get involved.
Learning through collaboration
In September 2022, the Ethiopian Medical Association announced a memorandum of understanding with EMSA covering capacity building, joint projects, strategic cooperation and membership.
