A second webinar, “Nothing gets transformed until your mind is transformed,” took place on April 4th from 9:00 am – 10:30 am, and focused on transformative approaches to strengthening pre-service education strengthening in Ghana, Kenya and Liberia. Strong pre-service education systems are critical for producing a fit-for-purpose health workforce. The Lancet commission’s report — entitled Health Professionals for a New Century — and the 2016 report from the United Nations High-Level Commission on Health Employment and Economic Growth both call out the need for transforming pre-service education.
The event included time for audience questions on implementing priority interventions — from strengthening curriculum and practice, to integrating digital technology and strengthening academic leadership and management.
