Volunteering for AMWA

AMWA is a not-for-profit, volunteer-led association. Our dedicated team of volunteers help to ensure the continuous operation of the association. We are always on the lookout for volunteers to help us organise events, workshops and our annual conference.

In addition to that, AMWA is looking for new volunteers to join the Executive Committee and assist with the following duties:

The overall operation of the association
Help organise the annual conference
Organise PDP webinars
Organise local networking events

Benefits of joining AMWA’s Executive Committee

As an AMWA volunteer committee member, you’ll enjoy:

Complimentary access to all PDP webinars
50% discount on conference registration

Becoming involved with AMWA also gives you opportunities for personal development and growth, and exposure to all AMWA’s behind-the-scenes activities.

AMWA’s Executive Committee is a fun and supportive team and includes both new and experienced writers.

You don’t have to have years of medical writing experience to volunteer with AMWA – we encourage writers who are just starting out to nominate.

Congratulations to Halimat Atanda, winner of the 2025 AMWA Early Career Award.

The judging panel was impressed by the quality of her submission, 'Methylation Simplified'. One judge commented, “This was a thoroughly enjoyable and highly engaging read. The writer made excellent use of literary devices to explain complex concepts. The flow was good and it was written at an appropriate level for the intended audience.”
