Abstract
Improving health in an increasingly globalised world demands a global perspective and an internationally coordinated response. For the response to be sustainable future leaders in health must be educated and empowered. Health-care students throughout the world respond to this challenge through the International Federation of Medical Students Associations (IFMSA) and the UK member organisation Medsin. These organisations provide an effective network for students to learn about and respond to global health issues. A key event in the Medsin calendar is the annual global health conference. This years was hosted by the Guys Kings and St Thomas Medsin branch (in London) at the end of March. Entitled Poverty and Health in the New Millennium it was the biggest conference in Medsins history bringing together over 400 predominantly medical and health-care students for a stimulating programme of plenaries workshops and poster presentations by students.
