ABOUT US

UAEM is a global network of university students who believe that our universities have an opportunity and a responsibility to improve global access to public health and necessary medicines. Many of the important medicines and public health technologies are developed in university laboratories. Compounding the need for health justice, equity, and equality globally, developing nations are profoundly affected by the research,  patenting, and licensing decisions made by universities--it makes affordability, accessibility, treatment, and prevention incredibly difficult.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, these issues are even more pressing. The Cambridge branch is releasing its Open Letter to the University of Cambridge on Friday 25th September. For more information, check the 'Open Letter' tab!
