ISSM Sexual Health Education Grant
The ISSM Global Outreach Committee is on a vital mission to make sexual medicine education and care accessible to everyone. By sharing knowledge and raising awareness, the committee helps healthcare professionals and the public better understand sexual health issues and recovery strategies.
Their primary focus is supporting low- and middle-income countries where access to educational and clinical resources is limited by providing ISSM Sexual Health Education Grants. The committee aims to bridge gaps in care and improve sexual health services across the globe.
Each year, ISSM members are invited to submit an application for an ISSM Sexual Health Education Grant. This grant is designed to help develop and implement sexual medicine programs in your area. When the ISSM Sexual Health Education Grant opens, announcements will be made via the website and other ISSM communication channels.
- Full ISSM Members from Category B or C countries (according to the World Bank Classification) can submit a proposal individually or via an affiliated society.
- Only individuals and affiliated societies with no commercial or profit interest in the project are eligible.
- Preference will be given to applicants with a proven record of establishing educational programs.
- Applicants without a proven record may apply if they can demonstrate that they are working with an ISSM member-mentor who is a known provider of educational programs.

- Projects will be assigned up to 10,000 USD, based on submitted budget approval.
