‘Muster’ is a term primarily used in Australia to refer to the roundup of livestock. However, it can also refer to the calling forth of people to a gathering. ‘The Muster’ will bring together internationally recognised leaders in community engaged medical education and will stimulate important discussions about key concepts and practices at the forefront of medical education: Longitudinal Learning, Community Engagement, Social Accountability and Aboriginal Health.

The venue at Uluru is of particular relevance to this conference. Not only Uluru being a sacred site for Indigenous Australians, but the Voyages Ayers Rock Resort is owned by the Indigenous Land Corporation (ILC) and has a strong commitment to social responsibility, community engagement, education and workplace training. All profits from their business activities go towards supporting the ILC’s Indigenous programs across Australia.

Conference hosts Flinders University and Northern Ontario School of Medicine, along with partner organisations James Cook University, Federation of Rural Australian Medical Educators (FRAME), Training for Health Equity Network (THEnet) and Consortium of Longitudinal Integrated Clerkship (CLIC) invite you to exhibit at or sponsor Muster 2014.

27 – 30 October



Welcome to the Muster 2014Flinders University and Northern Ontario School of Medicine are pleased to host the Global Community Engaged Medical Education Muster 2014 to be held in Uluru, Northern Territory Australia from 27-30 October 2014 at the Voyages Ayers Rock Resort. The organising committee invites you to consider being a sponsor for this highly prestigious event.

The underpinning aim of the Muster 2014 is to make a significant contribution to the body of knowledge on health professional education and community engagement to improve health outcomes. The Muster 2014 brings together clinical practitioners, academics, students, administrators, researchers, and community members from all parts of the world to discuss the themes:

• longitudinal learning;

• community engagement;

• social accountability; and,

• Aboriginal health.

Muster 2014 is the fourth in a series of international conferences on Community Engaged Medical Education, with more than 250 delegates from around the world expected to attend. Delegates will have the opportunity to share experiences, discuss opportunities, and identify challenges of community participation in education, service, and research. The Muster organising committee has engaged world renowned experts in the field of community engaged health professional education, resulting in a strong program with outstanding keynote speakers and concurrent sessions.

Recommendations from the Muster 2014 will be collated at the end the conference and featured in a report which will be sent to participants and sponsors. We believe this will have a significant long-term impact for improving community engaged medical education around the world. By sponsoring this event, you will help make this a reality.

On behalf of the organising committee, I encourage you to join us in the heart of Australia at the Muster 2014.

Sincerely, Professor Sarah Strasser Organising Committee Chair

the Muster 2014Partners

The Flinders University School of Medicine has an international reputation for integration and innovation in patient care, education and research. As a member of the Global Health Education Network and a founding member of the Towards Health Equity Network, the School is also committed to being accountable to the community it serves, both locally and internationally. The School’s main campus is situated in Adelaide, South Australia and extends to sites across rural South Australia and the Northern Territory. In 2011 Flinders made a significant step towards improving health outcomes for people in the Northern Territory, in particular towards the “Close the Gap” initiative to improve Indigenous Health, by establishing the first full medical program in the Northern Territory. The NT Medical Program (NTMP) has a social accountability mandate to train NT residents, with a particular focus on Indigenous students. The first students will graduate from this program at the end of 2014. The NTMP is based in Darwin and extends to key remote sites for training and research in Katherine, Alice Springs and Nhulunbuy as part of Flinders in the NT. The NTMP is supported by the NT Remote Clinical School, the Centre for Remote Health and the Poche Centre for Indigenous Health (Alice Springs).

The Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM) is the first medical school to open in Canada in over 30 years. Since its official opening in 2005, the School has developed and delivered a distinctive model of distributed, community engaged, and socially accountable medical education and research. NOSM has campuses at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay and Laurentian University in Sudbury, with teaching and research sites across Northern Ontario. NOSM is a made-in-the-North solution that is attracting attention from around the world for its innovative model. NOSM has become a world leader in community-engaged medical education and research, while staying true to its social accountability mandate of contributing to improving the health of the people and communities of Northern Ontario.

The consortium for longitudinal integrated curricula (clic) is a group of faculty from medical schools around the world who have or are considering developing, implementing and studying the longitudinal integrated clerkship model to address core clinical training for undergraduate medical education. Longitudinal integrated clerkships have the following common core elements:

1. Medical students participate in the comprehensive care of patients over time.

2. Medical students have continuing learning relationships with these patients’ clinicians.

3. Medical students meet, through these experiences, the majority of the year’s core clinical competencies across multiple disciplines simultaneously.

The Federation of rural Australian Medical Educators (FrAME) is the peak body representing those Rural Clinical Schools (RCS) and Regional Medical Schools (RMS) funded (in whole or in part) through the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing’s Rural Clinical Training and Support Program (RCTS). FRAME was established in 2003 to advance the causes common to medical student training in rural and remote Australia.

The training for health Equity Network (thEnet) is a collaborative of need and outcome-driven medical schools in neglected, rural, remote, and underserved urban regions of Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North and Latin America with a core mission to increase the number, quality, retention and performance of health professionals in under-served communities. THEnet’s socially accountable schools are communityengaged and embedded into the health system. They orient their education, research and service activities towards priority health concerns of the communities in the region they have a mandate to serve. THEnet school programs address the continuum of education – from recruitment strategies and bridge-programs for high school graduates – to post-graduate and in-service training with the ultimate goal of improving priority health outcomes and services and increasing retention of health workers.

The medical and dental programs at James cook University (JcU), North Queensland, have a distinctive regional mission with a focus on the needs of rural, remote and underserved communities, tropical medicine and the health of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders. The School aims to lead positive change in health and medical care for communities of tropical Australia and beyond through socially accountable health education, discoveries, partnerships and advocacy that make a difference. Underpinning our work is a shared commitment to social justice, a passion for innovation and a commitment to excellence.
