World Congress of
Chiropractic Students2008UNEVE, Mexico 15st January 2008 Dear Delegates,
RE: World Congress of Chiropractic Students 2008
As an affiliated college, you will be aware that The World Congress of Chiropractic Students (WCCS) is an international forum representing the chiropractic profession. Active membership now consists of over 28,000 students from 33 chiropractic colleges. The WCCS has been meeting every year since 1979 to discuss issues pertinent to the chiropractic profession. The next annual congress will be held from 7-12th August 2008 in Mexico City, Mexico.
This international event is an exceptional opportunity for students to develop a global awareness of chiropractic, discuss issues that affect students at a school, local, or international level and to exchange new ideas from a student perspective. Students will be actively assisting to unify the profession from within and to unite the health care community in the interest of contributing to world health.
Since the WCCS was established, care has been taken to ensure that the goals of congress are constantly met. These goals include:
- Working toward unity within the chiropractic profession;
- Serving as a liaison between chiropractic students and student associations with governmental and private groups;
- Promoting research and professional respect amongst members of the chiropractic profession and:
- To seek improvement in the quality of chiropractic education and improve student knowledge of, and participation in, current chiropractic political and social issues.
The UNEVE Chapter of WCCS is planning an interesting, challenging and thought provoking programme – one that integrates leading keynote speakers, excellent opportunities for debate and discussion and activities that will ensure delegates will form a network of lasting international friendships. On behalf of the WCCS, I wish to extend a warm invitation to delegates from your college to register for this important annual event. Your involvement with the WCCS has the potential to extend the global awareness of our profession and facilitate positive changes in the future. If you have any questions at all regarding The WCCS or application process, please contact me by e-mail at:
