Students Abstract & Poster Challenge

GWHIC 2024 invites submissions to the Student Abstract Challenge in the area of Women’s Health and Health Equity in India.

The Women's Health Equity Movement needs young minds, both girls and boys, and educational institutions to join the conversation and contribute. In an increasingly interconnected world, it is vital for us to involve the youth, our future leaders, to understand and actively participate in conversations surrounding health disparities, and start being an active changemaker.

Students from all streams of education arts, science, technology or creative science can participate as long as they focus on the abstract topic.

  • The abstract can be submitted, by the main lead student on behalf of the group or college. The submitting lead candidate student must be ready to join the conference and be available to present it at the event, should they win in their category. If for any reason, you are not able to or not willing to do so, or will not be able to organise your presence, travel, or participation, kindly leave this opportunity for those who are available and ready to avail this fully.
  • Regardless of your academic background, whether you're studying health, media, social sciences, engineering, business, arts, or technology, or any other discipline, your perspective and involvement are invaluable in addressing health inequalities. By learning about and engaging with this pressing issue, you can contribute to creating a more equitable and healthier future for all.
  • We encourage everyone to feel free and empowered to bring out their own ideas; we are open to receiving abstracts that are an idea, a campaign, a project, or a creative thought.

An alternative is an audio-visual abstract, that can be on display. The winning candidate must be present at the conference and present this to the audience in the exhibit area.
