The WPA Working Group on Medical Students publish an eBook compiling some of the selected essays they received as part of their fellowship award to attend last year's WPA World Congress in Bangkok
Capacity building and to promote psychiatry among medical students is one of the major components of World Psychiatric Association (WPA) Triennium Action Plan 2020- 2023. In this regard, WPA offered Medical Students the opportunity to win a fellowship (Travel Award) to attend the 22nd WPA World Congress of Psychiatry (WCP22) in Bangkok, Thailand in August 2022.
The WPA Working Group (WG) on Medical Students invited all medical students to submit an essay of up to 1,500 words (including references) on the topic of “Breaking the Silence: How is STIGMA a barrier to mental health”, with two successful winners being awarded USD $1,000 to cover the registration, travel, and accommodation costs to attend the WCP22 in Bangkok.
Over 150 entries were submitted from 39 different countries responding to the invitation to submit an essay on the topic of “Breaking the silence: How is STIGMA a barrier to mental health”.
The quality of entrees was impressive and the judging panel assessed the essays on the basis of originality, clarity of argument, academic rigour, abiding to the rules, and quality of writing.
The panel, consisting of several WPA members including Professor Howard Liu, Professor Nazish Imran, Dr. Bernardo Ng, Dr Sadiq Naveed, Dr Deepika Shaligram, Dr Irum Aamer, Dr Saeed Ahmed, and Professor Muhammad Waqar Azeem, had a challenging but rewarding job to narrow the submissions down to the two winners, through two-step process. The $1,000 fellowships were awarded to:
Daniyaal Taheri (Seth GS Medical College and King Edward Memorial Hospital, Mumbai, India).
Jolly Thomas (University of Ibadan College of Medicine, Ibadan, Nigeria).
The judging panel was extremely impressed by the high quality of submissions. This essay competition generated interest globally among medical students which was very encouraging. This is the first time WPA has conducted this kind of essay competition among medical students. We are extremely thankful to all the judges and members of the WPA Working Group on Medical students for their contributions in making this inaugural medical student essay competition successful.
Following the success of the competition, the WPA Working Group on Medical Students have released an eBook containing a compilation of the competition essays, including the two winning submissions. You can read the eBook here.

mental health is very important
This should be an interesting book. I have been studying the importance of mental health for a long time. I started learning about mental health after I was treated for erectile dysfunction with an gainswave machine. Then I realized that mental health problems can lead to many diseases, including erectile dysfunction.
A cool article and the event in general, it is very gratifying to see that not only knowledge is invested in students, but also material resources to provide them with the necessary materials and the same knowledge. So at one time we did a nursing writing services review, thus making our lives easier, because we knew that everything would be at the highest level and we would be helped by people with experience in writing papers, which made our papers quite different from others in terms of content, thus making them better.
