Throughout our work in the international student movement of IPPNW, the issue of the so called North-South divide becomes appearent at every step of the way. That's why it's a big topic for us to overcome at least some of the barriers imposed by the unequal distribution of wealth, power and influence in this world and create somewhat level playing fields. This means supporting students from developing countries, ensuring involvement from students from all parts of the globe, and listening to one another about our views and opinions. The importance we place in this work is symbolized by always having one International Student Representative from the Global South (recently we've had students from the Philipines, Egypt and Nepal fill this post) and the Global North (Denmark, USA and Germany).
