Abstract

The medical school at Ahfad University for Women in Sudan has assessed its social accountability standards within its processes and educational program using the Indicators for Social Accountability Tool. By engaging in this assessment process, two main gaps were identified: the involvement of community stakeholders in the medical school's decision- making processes and the integration of Interprofessional Education competencies. Boyer’s model of Engaged Scholarship has been used to guide the plan of action that addresses these gaps.
