The two main focuses of the evening will be work experience and medical school electives abroad. We hope that the talks give an insight into how doctors can impact on the global health landscape and may provide students with some elective ideas. There will be plenty of time to ask questions and chat after the talks, so come along to hear about some personal experiences of working in places such as New Zealand, Nepal and Cape Town. All are welcome, including medical students of any age and junior doctors who may be considering some work abroad in future.
