Wateen team was established in 2021 by elite of medical students at Yarmouk University. The team aim to discuss the different aspects of the medical topics , pharmacological and medical management for the patient as well, along with the other issues that the doctor face in his job and the medical practice in general especially the ones that have different scientific, legal or social views by one of the speech arts called Debate .

Team goals and objectives :
the team goals by the different of medical debate that it hold to enhance the skills of the participant in the medical research by referring them to the wide range of global research websites to prepare to the content of the debate, by this research the participant will get a lot of information about the subject of research to defend some of them and criticize some, so he’ll develop The critical mind that searches for the truth and is not deceived by justifications wrapped in a scientific style. Later on all of the knowledge together with the skills of criticism-for-truth will benefit the student in his studies and profession as a medical doctor.

Another skill that our participants develop is speaking fluently in front of the crowd. That she/he can use it in medical conferences or convincing people about misinformation about some health issues, like what we’ve seen during COVID 19 pandemic. Last, the team work in distributing the tasks then integrating the divided work with different colleagues of different personalities is a major gain of this experience that “Wateen team for medical debates’ give to medical students. For sure this team work will be helpful in the professional way when the future doctor works with colleagues in a multi-disciplinary work like in hospitals where different departments and different specialties present.

Yarmouk Medical Team (YMT) is a volunteer non-profit social team. It differs from the medical club which its administrative body is elected by its members and that is considered one of the university clubs. Our team is a volunteer team according to the mission. its membership is just by the desire to work in a team devoted for volunteer work. Any member could be the leader of the mission once the group agreed upon the plan. We collaborate with the other teams and clubs in the faculty and the university for the sake of demonstrating our students' skills in serving the community.

YMT launch was from the Faculty of Medicine campus. It's aim is to provide the students with some ancillary academic services that help them in their studies, curricular and extracurricular activities inside and outside the campus.

YMT activities are done by medical students of Yarmouk University.

IFMSA has established a platform for passionate medical students to service the community while simultaneously helping students establish their independence and knowledge. Yarmouk University local committee attained its membership in 2016, founded by a group of medical students @ YU (Elixir and Soul batches).

IFMSA- Jordan is within the Eastern Mediterranean Region- (EMR) which is one of five regions that are structurally affiliated to the parent organization, the International Federation of Medical Students' Associations (IFMSA) which is an international non governmental organization representing associations of medical students all over the world. It was founded in May 1951 and currently maintains 136 member organisations from 126 countries around the globe. The local committees meet at the country level periodically in the National General Assembly (NGA), while the national teams gather in periodic regional meetings. IFMSA General Assemblies at the level of the globe are among the biggest youth-led events around the world. Held twice a year – once in March, once in August – they are attended by over 800 medical students from 100+ countries.

IFMSA offers a wide range of opportunities depending on the topic of interest, as it branches into 6 committees which are:

1. Standing committee of Public Health(SCOPH): Aims to improve the general public health.
2. Standing committee of Medical Education(SCOME): Teaches students about skills needed by medical doctors including basic, clinical, personal and communication skills.
3. Standing committee of Research Exchange(SCORE): Provides research opportunities.
4. Standing committee of Professional Exchange(SCOPE): Provides hands-on clinical experiences.
5. Standing committee of Human rights and Peace (SCORP): Provides aid to refugees and encourages peace-making.
6. Standing committee of Reproductive Health (SCORA): Promotes reproductive health knowledge and rights.
