Foreword

Hello, People of Tomorrow! 

Since it was first established in 1996, AMSA-Indonesia has grown to become one of the largest medical students’ organizations in Indonesia. Spread across 36 universities in six districts, thousands of medical students throughout the nation are proud to call AMSA home. 

As an organization whose true essence lies in its core philosophies: Knowledge, Action and Friendship, AMSA-Indonesia places a great focus on providing opportunities and experiences for its members to develop holistically as future doctors in Indonesia. With that purpose at heart, AMSA-Indonesia conducts a plethora of programs, projects and events that aim to ignite the potentials of its members in the field of knowledge, provide a platform to give back through action and a home that fosters friendships that transcends geographical borders. 

Twenty four years has passed since AMSA-Indonesia’s journey began. At the age of 24, AMSA-Indonesia continues to grow but our journey was not written alone. Over the years, we have actively sought opportunities to collaborate with various parties, from governmental organizations, non-governmental organizations to partnerships. Since 2018, AMSA-Indonesia has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Kementerian Kesehatan Republik Indonesia, establishing AMSA-Indonesia as their official partner in actualizing better health of our country. Among our other partners include Kementerian Riset, Teknologi dan Pendidikan Tinggi Republik Indonesia, Ikatan Dokter Indonesia, Komite Penanganan COVID-19 dan Pemulihan Ekonomi Nasional, Yayasan Pita Kuning Anak Indonesia, AIESEC and Sustainable Development Solution Network (SDSN) Youth. 

With all the potential, energy and enthusiasm that our organization brings, we always look forward to future collaborations and cooperations with various organizations and parties that share our vision and values, and we encourage medical students and members of AMSA-Indonesia to join us in this journey. As Helen Keller once said, “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” Together, may we ignite the potentials and unleash all possibilities! 

Through the Official Website of AMSA-Indonesia, we are proud to formally introduce our organization and hopefully give you a better glimpse of our values and activities as an organization. Should there be any inquiries, do not hesitate to contact us through the contact details available on this website. 

“Igniting Potentials, Unleashing Possibilities” 

Viva AMSA!
