Standing Committees

Bangladesh Medical Students’ Society works on the local and national levels mainly via its six standing committees, each of them focusing on major health topics and medical student-related interests.

Each Standing Committee is headed by the Secretary-General. On the national level, the Standing Committee is coordinated by  National Officers, who are supported by a national team generally consisting of General Assistants, one Liaison Officer (who is responsible for communication with relevant external partners) and one PR-SM Officer(who is responsible for Public Relations and Social Media Maintenance support).  the National Officer, who is elected at each NMOs National General Assembly. On the local level, the work is executed by one or more Local Officers.

The work of each standing committee is complemented by several activities, such as training, campaigns and advocacy efforts, offering youth the space to learn in both formal and non-formal educational settings. Thousands of projects, activities, conferences and workshops are organized each year internationally, nationally and locally through the Local Committee network in each area, region or Medical College allowing the students to become agents of change at the local level and become global healthcare advocates.
