Beyond Borders: Poverty and Healthcare Perspectives in India, Japan, and the Philippines
Join SCORP AMSA-Philippines as we delve into the crucial discussion that will reframe poverty as a fundamental human rights issue and explore how it critically affects access to healthcare across our three distinct nations.
