Sažetak
The Croatian Medical Students’ International Committee (CroMSIC) is an association dedicated to improving education and collaboration across the Republic of Croatia. The organization’s activities are carried out through student volunteering. It implements a range of projects focused on prevention and education, including initiatives in public health, human rights, sexual and reproductive health, as well as medical education. Additionally, we conduct student exchange programs that enable students to travel and participate in professional and scientific exchanges worldwide, contributing to the recognition of Croatia and its university on a global scale. CroMSIC, as an association, provides a unique international experience and an opportunity for personal and professional development. Through various projects and initiatives, CroMSIC demonstrates its humanitarian side by assisting children and families in need, while some projects facilitate healthcare in often neglected rural areas. Their dedicated officials also work to raise awareness about various healthcare aspects, including specific topics like cancer prevention and genetics, in collaboration with local communities and experts. CroMSIC drives positive change through cooperation with schools, children’s homes, and local communities. Through its projects, the association aims to enhance the quality of medical education and raise awareness about key public health issues. Our past successes include educating thousands of students and engaging hundreds of student volunteers in projects. The aim of this article is to present the association CroMSIC as well as its goals – to contribute to better health and education in the Republic of Croatia, and to shape future generations of medical experts who will bring positive changes in society.
