SUMMARY
The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) mandated the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH) to implement the Main Phase of the Ukrainian-Swiss Medical Education Development Project in Ukraine.
Ukraine is deploying ambitious reforms in health care and education. This desire for change is supported by several external donors including SDC. This second phase of the project focuses on Medical Education Development for the primary health care sector and the cadres of PHC workers.
In line with the ‘2030 Health Care System Development Strategy’, elaborated by the MoH and the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, and embedded into the SDC Cooperation Strategy 2020 to 2023 for Ukraine, the overall goal of the Medical Education Development Project (MED) is:
Quality of healthcare services, especially on the primary care level are improved due to better medical and managerial education. As a result, primary healthcare providers are more competent, motivated for professional development and for the provision of patient-focused and safe healthcare services.
Expected outcomes are: Outcome 1: Capacities and capabilities of higher education institutions (training family doctors, family nurses, and managers) are improved and assure student-oriented education of higher quality. Outcome 2: PHC personnel have improved competencies and enhanced teamwork capabilities and thus users have more trust and satisfaction. Outcome 3: An enabling policy development and work environment for enhanced medical education and HRH is established. Educators, practitioners, and policy-makers form a learning community adopt good international practices.
In general, Phase 2 (project follow up phase) builds on the foundations that had been laid in Phase 1 (Dec 2018 to June 2023).
