Comprehensive Fit-for-Purpose Curriculum: Focus on Primary Healthcare Principles
At the Quadrennial Conference held at Tlotlo Hotel Gaborone, Botswana Africa, the international Executive Council of the Global Association launched their five-year strategic impact on the following themes
- Research and Publications
- Undergraduate Medical Training
- Postgraduate Medical Education
- Global unemployment
- Centre of Medical Excellence
The international Executive Council in partnership with the international Academy of Physician Associates Educators is collaborating on universal curriculum for cross border practice amongst nations worldwide.
GACOPA emphasized the need to develop comprehensive curriculum similar to the four year Doctor of Medicine curriculum or the 6 year Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery curriculum
The curriculum will emphasize on the core principles of primary healthcare – quality, affordability, accessibility, and financial risk protection.
The registered medical practitioner and the registered clinical practitioner must have similar training theorized upon unique professional principles and healthcare focus.
