Global Health

Errol Alden and William Keenan co-chair this Working Group. There are now four areas of focus:

  1. International certification
  2. Global Health Rotations and Curriculum for medical students and residents
  3. Creating sustainable global partnerships
  4. Helping Babies Breathe, a neonatal resuscitation and education program for the global lay public

The Working Group envisions sharing knowledge across FOPO member organizations for each of these efforts. The group is considering sponsoring a forum to share ideas and one focus will be global health training and education. The forum would include pediatric program directors and members of the AAP International Child Health Section, the AAP Section on Medical Students, Residents, and Fellowship Trainees, and the Review Committee for Pediatrics of the ACGME. The Working Group plans to meet at PAS in Vancouver.
