BACKGROUND✅
The Zambian Royal Medical University Pharmacy Student Association (ZARMUPHARMSA) was established in January 2022 by a group of dedicated individuals passionate about advancing pharmacy education and practice in Zambia. Key founding members included Mr. Nobu Matamwandi, Mr. Success G. Miti, Mr. Choongo Molomoka, Mr. Sikota Mulikita, Ms. Lukundo Kapembwa, Mr. Tabo Musa, and other unnamed contributors.Recognizing the need for a platform to enhance the academic experience of pharmacy students, promote professional development, and advocate for the profession, the founders established ZARMUPHARMSA. The association aims to be a voice for pharmacy students and foster collaboration with healthcare stakeholders.In its inaugural year, ZARMUPHARMSA formed a strong leadership team under the presidency of Mr. Success G. Miti. The executive committee comprised Mr. Sikota Mulikita as Vice President, Mr. Abraham Sinyange as Secretary General, Ms. Lukundo Kapembwa as Academician, Mr. Tabo Musa as Finance Minister, and Ms. Blessings Ndhlovu as Publicity Secretary.It's important to note that Mr. Abraham Sinyange and Mr. Sikota Mulikita, with administrative support, played a crucial role in affiliating ZARMUPHARMSA with the Pharmaceutical Society of Zambia (PSAZ). Additionally, Mr. Sikota Mulikita drafted the association's constitution, which was subsequently reviewed and amended by the ZARMUPHARMSA executive.The inaugural executive team focused on implementing programs that prioritized academic excellence, community service, and professional development. Their efforts fostered a supportive environment for students and encouraged collaboration within the pharmacy community. As ZARMUPHARMSA continues to grow, it builds upon the foundation laid by its founders and early leadership, striving for excellence in pharmacy education and practice.
