AMA Equity, Inclusion and Diversity Plan 2023-2025

The AMA is committed to promoting equity, inclusion and diversity (EID) within the medical profession and to working collaboratively with our members and other organisations to encourage EID.

The AMA Equity, Inclusion and Diversity Plan 2023-2025 (the plan) is one of the specific commitments made by the AMA to advance EID both within the AMA and externally. It provides the AMA with a platform to connect the range of work done across the organisation, build on work underway, and identify further opportunities to advance EID within the AMA and healthcare environment more broadly. This is the second plan developed by the AMA with the AMA achieving of 78 per cent of the actions outlined the AMA Diversity and Inclusion Plan 2020-2022.
