全球健康语境下的医学教育

Medical Education in the Context of Global Health

全球化进程的加速给世界卫生体系带来巨大挑战,也对医学教育提出了新的要求。开展全球健康教育已成为国际医学教育发展的趋势,医学专业人员应该具备的"全球健康能力"分为:全球公民水平、探索水平、基本操作水平和高级水平四个层次。我国全球健康教育起步较晚、整体发展相对滞后,面临认识的缺位、培养结构固化、人才培养与健康需求不匹配、缺乏全球健康实践等诸多问题。要树立全球健康理念,以全球健康能力为导向,调整医学教育方向、优化课程结构,加强国际和地区合作、开展全球健康实践,推动我国全球健康教育的发展。

The acceleration of the globalization poses a great challenge to the world health system. The medical education is required to take a global perspective and meets the needs of health system reform. Global health education has become the trend of international medical education. Medical professionals should have the ＂global health competencies＂ in global level, exploratory level, basic operation level and advanced level. Global health education started late in China, facing with many challenges of lacking awareness, fixed personnel structure, inadequate practitioners with higher health care demands, and inadequate global health practice. Therefore, it is necessary to take the global health perspective, be globalization-oriented, adjust the direction of medical education, optimize the curriculum structure, strengthen the internationally and domestic collaboration, and provide more opportunities of global health practice, all of which should be regarded as the effective ways to carry out the global health education in China.
