From the beginning, SCORA (Standing Committee on Reproductive Health including AIDS) has believed that one of the important methods of fighting AIDS is through prevention; and the only way of prevention is through education. Therefore, the main focus of this committee is on activities that emphasize already existing solutions and create new educational programs for medical students, as well as for
the general population . Other activities have been directed towards promotion of healthy reproductive behaviour, prevention of HIV and STIs, prevention of abortion, reproductive rights, women's rights (gender equality), the fight against domestic violence, Female Ge***al Mutilation, and maternal health. SCORA develops and promotes medical students’ empowerment and activities aiming at improving reproductive health and rights led by students for the benefit of their communities. This is primarily done through peer education , trainings and workshops .
