I’m a student, resident, or fellow, and I would like to start a chapter at my school or hospital. How do I get started?
- Check to make sure your organization meets the eligibility requirements.
- Find a faculty member willing to serve as a faculty advisor. Your faculty advisor is responsible for securing institutional approval.
- Reach out to find other interested students or residents and organize an initial meeting (overseen by the advisor). Elect officers and approve bylaws for the chapter at the first meeting.
- Complete the online application.
What do I need to complete the application?
Some basic information about your institution, contact information for the faculty advisor and the officers, a copy of the approved chapter bylaws. The entire application should take less than an hour to complete.
I’ve been asked to be a faculty advisor. What does this entail?
The role of the faculty advisor is to oversee the initial formation of the chapter, to ensure the chapter’s activities are in accordance with the institutional rules, and to assist in providing continuity for the chapter. The initial application requires the faculty advisor’s signature, indicating that the chapter of Health4TheWorld has institutional approval. For further information, please refer to section Article VII of the bylaws.
Can a university or medical center have more than one chapter?
Yes! Different departments may have different chapters. For example, if your university has a computer science department and a nursing school they may start different chapters or they may work on starting a chapter together. Or medical school and a residency program at the same academic medical center can start separate chapters. These chapters are encouraged to communicate and coordinate efforts whenever beneficial.
How long does our chapter have approval?
Chapters are approved for one academic year and must apply for renewal each year.
Are there fees for starting and maintaining a chapter?
