Sažetak
Inspired by the desire to contribute to public health activities among students, educate the community, contribute to society and encourage discussion on various topics in the field of public health, we started with our vision and projects. Our great motivation and inspiration is the character and work of academician Andrija Štampar whose ideas we want to implement in the 21st century. National School of Public Health "Andrija Štampar" has recognized our will and desire from the beginning and has fully supported us from the outset.
We have been participating in the international project Movember for two years and this year we have organized together with our partners a forum on male infertility where we gave a cross-section of this issue from different perspectives. Vaccination as one of the most current issues of nowdays is the subject of our work. For that reason we have organized the Vaccination - controversy vs. facts where we with the help of experts in this field showed the importance and necessity of vaccination for the human population, and pointed out the imprecision and scientific incompetence of the attitudes of the vaccine opponents. We also participated in the expert meeting Challenges of vaccination in the Republic of Croatia - How to protect public health? where along with other members of health system we tried to find solutions to the challenges that medicine is facing today. Aware of the importance of preventive action, we have been supporting for two years the international symposium Štamparovi Dani - Healthy lifestyles where we participate in public health actions. In the wish to acquaint students of medicine and interested citizens with the way of financing the health system, costs in health care and the fact that each diagnostic test costs, we organized a panel discussion How much health care cost?. Within the promotional-preventive program Healthy University we organized a forum Where the project of the University Hospital has gone? and wanted to investigate what happened with the mentioned project over time and where is one of the strategic goals of the city of Zagreb and the Republic of Croatia. We also organized a panel together with the Student Councile of the School of Medicine,University of Zagreb, on the subject of internship – Physician's internship. At this forum, we discuss the problem that currently occupies most of medical students. The peak of our activity is the web site Ask Andrija!. The project was designed according to the principle "students for students" as the first public health portal for the student population, which as the most healthy population is often neglected within the health system. We also hold lectures in high schools. After our members go through education on sexually transmitted diseases and reproductive health, they come to schools where school population are taught about this important public health issue. By organizing event Health for Everyone in the 21st century - Early detection of breast cancer we tried to give answers to the issue on this topic and present the current situation in Croatia and the world.
