Keywords:
social accountability, undergraduate medical education, dentistry educationAbstract
As part of a global social accountability fellowship, the Indicators for Social Accountability Tool was completed for the Doctor of Medicine program and the Doctor of Dental Surgery program, both within the Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Completion of the tool for two distinct programs within one faculty identified program strengths and areas where coordination across the faculty could lead to more socially accountable processes across multiple programs. Areas that warranted further refinement through a social accountability lens at the faculty level included faculty recruitment, faculty development, governance, and tracking program outcomes and societal impact.
