We hear you
Our annual member attitude survey helps us focus on what matters to you (see Year in Review 2022). This year, two-thirds of International Medical Graduate members say they’ve experienced racist microaggressions and have little faith in being heard or the issue being taken seriously. We hear you aims to be a catalyst for changes that rebuild doctors’ confidence and trust to report these abuses.
