Mission
AAYC was created in July 2019 in response to the need for a Western Sydney University student club that represented African students and friends of Africa. The African Diaspora community and perspective is very important to the Western
Sydney context and beyond. The founders of AAYC have set out to deliver a club that offers students the opportunity to participate in personal and professional enhancing activities that focus on issues affecting Africans on the African continent as well as the Diaspora.

The 3 focus areas of the Collective are:
1. Community engagement
2. Career advancement
3. Creative arts

The core objective of the Collective is to provide a creative and supportive network where members can use their passions and skills to build a portfolio that they can transfer into their career area of choice. The Collective endeavours to work on existing and new projects that focus on empowering and uplifting Africans, especially the Diaspora in the Western Sydney Community. Furthermore, the Collective wishes to facilitate cultural understanding and exchanges for members of the wider
community.

AAYC is a collective for the student that thinks and dreams big, for the intrigued but reserved student and everyone in between!

On the Parramatta campus, WSMSA aims to:

- Cater to the needs of Muslims on campus and foster an Islamic environment;

WSMSA Parramatta seeks to achieve these objectives through maintaining the prayer room for all Muslims to use, arranging both social and religious events, and breaking-down barriers between Muslims and non-Muslims. We also barrack for the provision of halal food for Muslims on campus, . These things, amongst many others, are done to accommodate the needs of Muslims on campus.

These events focus on a variety of topics, from core Islamic matters central to every Muslim, to the controversial topics that flourish the headlines. Through this, we aim to educate Muslims and non-Muslims about Islam so that they may gain a sound and thorough understanding, as we seek to engage in intellectual discourse with all manner of other faiths.

We hope that WSMSA Parramatta can serve and assist the student population by engaging as a dynamic and creative student body on the basis of Islam.

Introduction:
Occupational therapy is a crucial field that plays a pivotal role in enhancing the quality of life for individuals facing physical, mental, or developmental challenges. With the aim of fostering a deeper understanding of occupational therapy principles, promoting professional development, and fostering a supportive community, we propose the creation of an Occupational Therapy Society at our university.

How Are We Different from Existing Clubs?
While our university offers various clubs and organisations, the Occupational Therapy Society stands out for several key reasons:

Specialised Focus: Unlike general health or medical clubs, our society is dedicated exclusively to occupational therapy. This specialisation allows us to delve deeply into the unique aspects of this field, offering members a focused and tailored experience.

Professional Development: Our primary objective is to provide resources and opportunities for members to advance their knowledge and skills in occupational therapy. This includes workshops, seminars, and networking events with professionals in the field.

Inclusivity: We aim to create an inclusive space that welcomes students from diverse academic backgrounds, not just those pursuing occupational therapy degrees. This promotes interdisciplinary collaboration and provides a holistic perspective on healthcare.

Community Engagement: Through community service initiatives, we will apply occupational therapy principles to make a tangible impact on the lives of individuals in our local community. This active engagement sets us apart from many other clubs.

Career Advancement: We are dedicated to helping members prepare for their future careers. We will offer guidance on internships, and job opportunities, and provide a platform for students to gain practical experience.

What Do We Want to Achieve as a Group?
Our overarching goals are as follows:

Knowledge Dissemination: We aim to disseminate knowledge about occupational therapy, its principles, and its applications among our members and the broader university community. This will be achieved through workshops, lectures, and information sharing.

Professional Networking: We intend to establish connections between our members and professionals in the field, enabling them to gain insights, seek mentorship, and explore career opportunities.

Community Impact: By engaging in community service projects, we aim to apply occupational therapy concepts to improve the well-being of individuals in our local community. This will not only benefit those in need but also provide valuable practical experience for our members.

Interdisciplinary Collaboration: We seek to bridge the gap between various disciplines within the university, fostering collaboration between students from diverse backgrounds to promote a holistic approach to healthcare.

Skill Development: Our society will offer skill-building opportunities, such as hands-on workshops, that will enhance the practical abilities of our members and prepare them for future careers in occupational therapy.

What Is Our Purpose?
The purpose of the Occupational Therapy Society is threefold:

Education: To educate students about the principles and practices of occupational therapy, promoting a deeper understanding of the field.

Community Service: To apply occupational therapy principles to benefit our local community, fostering a sense of social responsibility among our members.

Professional Development: To provide resources, networking opportunities, and career support to members pursuing careers in occupational therapy, enhancing their academic and professional growth.

Conclusion:
The creation of an Occupational Therapy Society at our university is not only timely but also essential in promoting knowledge, collaboration, and service within our community. By focusing on specialization, professional development, inclusivity, community engagement, and career advancement, we are confident that our society will contribute positively to the university's educational and community-oriented goals. We humbly request the university's support in establishing this society and look forward to the opportunity to create a lasting impact.
