From Classrooms to Neighborhoods -- A Reality Students Must Be Prepared For
Abstract
In recent decades, medical education has been changing around the world in an effort to improve quality, equity, and relevance among other characteristics. A good example for this is the accreditation process of many medical institutions around the world. Besides this, institutions are also aiming to reach what has been defined as social accountability, and it is the main topic of the must-read, “Global Consensus for Social Accountability of Medical Schools.” 1 Both topics have been widely explored by The Network: TUFH and its members during the last years and are reflected on The Fortaleza Declaration (2014)2 and the Tunis Declaration (2017)3 seeking global learning objectives for health professionals and to enhance health and social justice in the social accountability context respectively.
