UCL Global Business School for Health
Webinar, 25 April 2024, 13:00 - 14:00 BST
The health workforce in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is deeply heterogeneous, manifesting varying levels of official legitimacy and informality of practice, as well as diverse, overlapping systems of knowledge and variably specialised cadres of providers. Coordinating this mixed workforce calls for governance approaches responsive to the opportunities and challenges presented by this diversity. The panellists will discuss conceptual issues and practical considerations around managing health workforce heterogeneity in LMICs.
