The BMA International Department runs the BMA Information Fund which helps to provide health information to organisations in developing countries. The fund donates educational materials, such as books and DVDs, to healthcare workers and health-focused organisations.
The fund is open to health care institutions, health NGOs, medical school libraries and other related organisations. It is run in association with Teaching Aids at Low Cost (TALC) a charity dedicated to providing books and educational materials to healthcare workers and organisations in developing countries.
To apply, complete the attached application form and book list and send to internationalinfo@bma.org.uk
Deadline for applications - Friday 27 August , 5.00pm UK time.
The BMA cannot accept any submissions received after this time. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Please note that application forms with any missing information will be automatically rejected.
The Fund is limited to £30,000 and individual applications must not request more than £2000.
In previous years the Fund has been heavily oversubscribed and detailed applications and booklists that strongly reflect an organisation's aims will be preferentially reviewed. We are not able to respond to requests from individuals.
