Mission
Our mission is to integrate the rich traditions of Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) cultures into the medical field by hosting cultural events, facilitating mentorship with pioneering professionals, and connecting students to meaningful volunteer opportunities. We aim to build a network that links our members with peers and institutions across medical schools, fostering a comprehensive understanding of MENA identities within healthcare and promoting leadership in culturally competent medical practice.
What We Do
The Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) Club is dedicated to creating a welcoming and inclusive space for students to connect, share experiences, and explore the rich cultural diversity of the MENA region. Through engaging cultural events, insightful discussions, and educational initiatives, we aim to foster understanding, build a strong sense of community, and raise awareness about the importance of diversity and inclusion. Additionally, we strive to integrate MENA culture into the medical field by connecting students with pioneers across various medical and surgical specialties, facilitating mentorship and research opportunities, and providing avenues for volunteering. By collaborating with other medical institutions, we seek to deepen understanding, promote diversity, and support professional growth.
