The Standing Committee on Reproductive
Health including AIDS (SCORA) is 1 of the 6 standing committees of the International Federation of Medical Students’ Associations’ (IFMSA). Within SCORA,
medical students from all over the world
work on issues concerning Reproductive & Sexual health & this can be through
advocacy work, projects, or through peer
education.
Reproductive health is a very wide subject,
ranging from sexual rights, to women's
health and HIV/AIDS. However, the
international Body of SCORA just last year
decided to focus on 5 main areas within the field of reproductive health:
1) Comprehensive Sexuality Education
2) Violence against Women
3) Maternal Health
4) Access to Safe Abortion
5) HIV/AIDS: Its prevention, Stigma and Discrimination
As a result, the ABUAD team for SCORA, as
the National representatives for SCORA in
Nigeria, is out to make sure that our impact is felt right here in ABUAD, in other parts of the country and the World at large through the different programs that have been scheduled for this year. These include:
Debates, Campaign against issues
such as rape, child molestation & so on,
International seminars e.t.c.
