Wilderness & Extreme Medicine

UU WEMS is for the medics, nurses, paramedics, AHPs, and students who believe:
"Where medicine cannot reach, our work begins."

We explore how healthcare is delivered in the most extreme environments on Earth — and maybe one day, beyond it. Whether it's up a mountain, at sea, in a disaster zone, or on expedition, we learn to lead under pressure and care in chaos.

Our society is built on three pillars:

• 📚 Education – Workshops, simulations, and talks on wilderness, humanitarian, prehospital, and aerospace medicine.
• 🧭 Experience – Hikes, expeditions, moulage scenarios, survival skills, and rescue simulations.
• 🦍 Community – A tribe of interdisciplinary students who grow, train, and adventure together.

Whether you want to run scenarios, lead an expedition, or just come along for a hike and a pint 🍻— there's a place for you here.
