Supadel (support a delegate), payments and membership:

What is it? Support a delegate (Supadel) is a unique initiative of the African Federation of Emergency Medince (AFEM)  that aims to sponsor the attendance of delegates from low or middle income countries at AFEM related conferences and training courses.

For a decade, Supadel has made a significant impact, allowing numerous Emergency Care professionals to attend high quality acute care conferences and training courses across the continent.

How it Works: Our selective vetting process ensures the Supadel sponsorship goes to the most deserving delegates. Conference delegates or other donors financially sponsor their peers from African low to middle income countries by adding a percentage to their own conference fee or by donating online through GivenGain. Supadel can be done through partial sponsorships which covers registration costs and accommodation. Sponsored delegates can contribute to their attendance by financing their own travel expenses.

We're really encouraged by your support.  Whether you're supporting Supadel (support a delegate) or making a general donation to AFEM this is the place to do it.  You can donate in any currency you like and you can give as much as you like (really, don't hold back).

To date Supadel has channelled a whopping ZAR 1.9 million+ ($140,000) of sponsorship to 250+ delegates from over 600 peers since 2009.
