Mission:
The International Medical Volunteers Association (IMVA) is a nonprofit organization that promotes, facilitates, and supports voluntary medical activity through education and information exchange. Our interests are primarily in developing countries. Formed in 1996, we work with a wide range of volunteers: physicians, dentists, nurses, therapists, hospital administrators, public health specialists, technologists, health educators, missionaries, physician's assistants, students and others interested in health care. We provide information about volunteer opportunities and offer practical advice on how to find and choose compatible assignments.

Specialities of volunteers needed:
Emergency Medicine,Infectious Disease,Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation,Preventive Medicine
And
The medical personnel most in demand by relief agencies include surgeons, pediatricians, family practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, public health educators, maintenance / repair personnel and laboratory technicians. However, with a little research, people with almost any medical or medical support skill will find productive and rewarding assignments.

Regions/geographic locale of most projects:
Asia
