UNC Charlotte AMWHO stems from the overarching national model-WHO organization called the American Mock World Health Organization (AMWHO), aiming to educate students on the global health entity called the World Health Organization in all universities. The purpose of the creation of UNC Charlotte AMWHO is to enrich the education and discourse on public policy, global policy, global health, and diplomacy amongst the students at UNC Charlotte through simulations of the World Health Assembly. The organization’s objectives are to initiate student engagement in health advocacy, create an atmosphere allowing students to form life-long networking connections with similarly passionate individuals, enrich the university’s educational curriculum through exposure to global institutions such as the World Health Organization, and convene students interested in various departments like public health, global studies, healthcare policy, and public policy to discuss and exchange ideas.
