History of NZMSA
The New Zealand Medical Students’ Association (NZMSA) is a student-led association established in 1972. We have a proud history of representing medical students, with many highlights along the way. Our vision is to represent, unite, and empower medical students in Aotearoa on the views, issues and concerns relevant to them. The overall goal of our work is to improve the health of New Zealanders.
NZMSA Meet Our Team
Executive Directors
The NZMSA President and Vice Presidents of Advocacy, Engagement, and Workforce lead and oversee all projects run by the organisation, as well as act as the primary spokespersons for our initiatives. If there is a student issue of national concern, these individuals are the best persons to reach out to!
Executive Officers
The Secretary, Treasurer, Partnerships Officer and Communications Officer are key players in the day-to-day operations of NZMSA in terms of managing the organisation's internal administration, finances and external communications with stakeholders, collaborators and the national student body.
Executive Representatives
Our Representatives are elected via their respective student organisations, liaising between them and NZMSA. Scattered across Aotearoa's campuses and clinical sites, they are friendly faces who advocate on your behalf and contribute to our Advocacy, Engagement and Workforce Working Groups.
Steering Committee
The Steering Committee gathers leaders from student organisations across Aotearoa, including Te Oranga, AUMSA, OUMSA ELM, DSMAA, WHPSA and CMSA. Chaired by NZMSA's Directors, this Committee sets the direction for our advocacy work, directing our organisation's vision, goals and culture.
