Medical Education in Closed Countries by Shari Falkenheimer

Explore diverse global healthcare education opportunities in 'closed' countries, from employment to consultations, teaching, and community health worker training, leveraging Christian values to impact global health.

Time & Location

Time is TBD

Bethel Church, 18700 Harvard Ave, Irvine, CA 92612, USA

No countries are actually “closed” when it comes to healthcare professional education! There are long and short term opportunities as well as repetitive opportunities to share one’s expertise with colleagues in other countries. This workshop will outline the types of opportunities that exist and give examples of how different Christians and Christian organizations have taken advantage of the opportunities that exist. These include, for example, employment in medical facilities and healthcare professional schools, short term visits to teach desired topics, requested consultations from healthcare leaders and institutions, opportunities to participate in local, national and international conferences, government sponsored opportunities such as the Fulbright Scholar program, teaching opportunities in residency programs and international clinics, and opportunities to help educate community health workers.
