ISSM Global Outreach Committee Grant
The committee extends an open invitation to all ISSM Members to contribute to aiding low- and middle-income countries with limited educational and clinical resources. By joining hands with the Global Outreach Committee, members can actively participate in making a positive impact on sexual health education worldwide.
On an annual basis we invite ISSM Members to submit an application for an ISSM Global Outreach Committee Grant. The grant aims to develop and implement a sexual medicine program in your area. When the Global Outreach Committee Grant opens, it will be announced via the website and other communication channels of the WMSM.
