The Federation of African Medical Students Association (FAMSA) is the official single body for all Medical students in Africa. Established in 1968, FAMSA is a project – oriented medical student body recognized by the African Union, and the World Health Organization with her permanent headquarters board hosted by the University of Ibadan Medical Students association, College of Medicine, University of Ibadan, Nigeria. FAMSA holds her annual General Assembly (GA) where topical health issues are discussed, with students and resource persons presenting papers regarding the theme of the GA.

The 32nd GA will be held in West-Africa’s largest city, Ibadan in August 2018. This will bring together healthcare students, professionals and relevant stakeholders from both member countries throughout Africa, and globally. International Campus Ambassadors (ICAs) are individuals from campuses who will serve as representatives of the Organizing Committee towards the 32nd GA of the Federation of African Medical Students Association, which happens to equally celebrate 50 years of her existence. They will be liaison officers, in their resident campuses promoting the GA and Scientific Conference and serving as the primary means of contact with prospective delegates from their respective campuses. As an ICA, you will be expected to utilize your campus networks through various students associations and connections, as well as engage in social media campaigns, campus workshop and so on to promote the General Assembly. You, as an ICA, will be the face of FAMSA GA and 50th Anniversary 2018 in your campus!
