The origins of the association are based on Human Rights defense with a first mission in the Gaza Strip (Palestine) few months after its creation. We gave to some public and private organisations financial donations that we had collected in France, we filmed a movie coverage that we screened during 3 public events in France that gathered around 80 people and the film has since then been published on Youtube where more than 1000 people have watched it.

After this experience, we thought that it was not enough but without opportunity to go back to Gaza Strip, we decided to go support the palestinian people in the refugee camps of Lebanon, we sent there for around 60 000 € of paramedical equipment and we traveled with our 4 members team our bagages full of medicines. Considering the success of the film from Gaza, we decided to make a new documentary to talk about the history and the life of people living in those refugee camps. The film has been screened during a single event at the Lille 2 university where 60 students gathered to watch it. It was a great success considering the average number of participants in events related with Palestine.

In July 2018, we have organized a Palestinian diner in the neighborhood where OFCI was born. 100 inhabitants gathered, paid their seat and stayed for the diner and the presentations.

Working on Palestine and Lebanon related activities was life changing for everyone who has been involved, we really want to keep going in this direction and develop new long term project with palestinian refugees in Lebanon that are going through intense challenges.

Outside of these projects in Middle East, OFCI has always wanted since 2012 to implement activities with other actors all around the world. Thanks to the Erasmus+ program, it became a reality in 2013 in Erasmus+ with the sending of french young people to more than 70 youth exchanges and training courses tackling different issues that young people are interested in such as citizenship, human rights, unemployment, entrepreneurship, interculturality and environment.

On a local scale, the organization is setting up public events that are designed to encourage young people and members of the organization to meet, as well as other inhabitants of the area. On a national level, we support young people to stand up for what they think is right, debate about different topics online and confront their ideas.

As a doctor, I would like to use my skills and knowledge to help people to overcome diseases and health barriers allowing them to achieve the highest possible quality of life. Throughout my studies, I had been present in an international organisation called European Medical Students Association (EMSA). There, I took parts in various events and seminars which mainly aimed to raise the public health awareness. During my first year in EMSA, I became the Public Health Coordinator. Therewith, I volunteered in ‘Health Screening Tour of Black Sea’; a project concerning health issues caused by welfare gap. I also was a volunteer, then the leader, of the ‘Teddy Bear Hospital’; a project which educated children on common health knowledge. The year after, when I became the EMSA’s Internal Vice President, I participated in a Leadership Training Program which highly broadened my understanding of organisational management as well as it improved my leadership skills. Being in contact with well-known NGOs and being a member of EMSA and Rotary led me form a strong desire to learn more about organisational development and management. My summer internship at Assos Pharmaceuticals enabled me to see companies from an inner perspective, hence, improved my understanding of the relation between work place and employees’ health. Lately, I formed a strong desire to top my studies with another subject that I am highly interested in, which is organisations. However, finding a combination of health and organisational management was a great obstacle. Also, all the experiences I had in various countries and international platforms opened my eyes on diversity. Thus, as my admiration for the Scandinavian, more specifically Swedish, culture reached its peak; continuing my studies in Sweden would be nothing but a dream come true. With the experience I have gained in working at the emergency department, I see myself emerging as a natural leader and controller of the hardest situations. Leaders are those few who do manage to balance the use of their “lever and fulcrum”. The building of a successful lever has only just begun for me. There is still so much that I have not seen or done. Life is full of opportunities that can lead to great experiences which will aid me in becoming the best doctor and scientist I can possibly be.
