E-DRUG: HAI: Announcement of 2012 Essay Writing Competition
---------------------------------------------------
Health Action International (HAI) Europe is sponsoring an essay contest open
to European nationals or others who are permanently residing in Europe and
who are in, or have completed, full time education in the last eight years.
The essay should focus on one of the principal areas of HAI Europe's policy
work: Rational use of medicines, Access to essential medicines, and
Democratisation of medicines policy (see the HAI Europe website:
www.haieurope.org).
Winning entries will be selected by a panel of referees and announced at the
end of June. There will be (limited) funding available to cover the costs
(travel, hotel, entry visa) for the winner to attend the autumn Annual
General Meeting of the HAI Europe Association so that she/he can make a
short 15-minute Power Point presentation based on their essay at the
meeting and be present over the course of the two-day meeting (exact date
and location to be determined). Winning essays will also be posted on the
HAI website.
Essays must be written in English, double-spaced, and be between 1500 and
2000 words excluding titles and references.
