Standing Committee on Human Rights and Peace

Medicine is a
human right.

We are the youngest part of MKM and, as our name suggests, we focus on informal education of our fellow students in human rights as they relate to medical practice.

Pizza Day – once a semester we bake homemade pizza together.

Human rights ✳ Community ✳ Mental health ✳ Sustainability ✳ Discussion ✳ Helping others ✳

Our aim

Our main aim is to create a safe space for everyone – a community where medical students come to find calm and a break from studying!

Besides looking after our mental health, we are not afraid to discuss all kinds of topics and issues in our society, and we encourage medical students to protect human rights in medicine and beyond it – for all people, without distinction!

Pizza Day

Once a semester we hold Pizza Day, when we enjoy great homemade pizza together in a relaxed atmosphere. The event is mainly about getting to know each other, informal conversations and making new connections.

Pizza Day is the perfect chance to learn more about SCORP’s activities, get involved and talk not only about human rights in medicine but about anything that interests us.

Medics’ Clothes Swap

Together with HUMANA we regularly organise a clothes swap. The idea is to give clothes a second life and do our bit for the planet. Students bring clean, undamaged clothes from their wardrobes and swap them for new pieces to take home. Thanks to the partnership, there is always a wide choice of stylish items.

Canine therapy – when dogs heal

At this event, students met canine therapist Katka and her two Cavaliers, Molly and Erinka. They learned that canine therapy is a form of animal-assisted therapy that uses the positive effect of dogs on people. Katka shared experiences from her work in a centre for children with autism spectrum disorder and in a care home, explained why dogs belong on hospital wards and showed how she works with children in kindergarten. Students tried out games and commands, fed the dogs and played with them. The seminar was very informative – and a welcome break from the stress of upcoming exams.

Wishing Tree

We also run the WISHING TREE, where students can give gifts of everyday necessities to those who really need them. This year we focused on children from the school and kindergarten at the Martin health facility (together with the Children’s Clinic of the University Hospital Martin). We try to bring joy not only to animals but also to people around us.
