Health information and technology for improved health education in South-East Asia

Description

Two important elements of healthcare workforce development are access to information and quality higher education. Health sciences staff, students and healthcare professionals in low- and middle-income countries lack access to high quality health information adapted to their specific needs. Access to high quality education becomes more important for future healthcare professionals, amongst others because an accelerating digitalisation needs matching digital competencies. In Indonesia and Cambodia, these problems are excacerbated respectively by a spread-out geography and a challenging economical situation. Both countries want to enhance quality of their Higher Education (HE) and improve university support services.This project addressses the above needs by:1) Building up the capacity of techno-pedagogical staff, so they can assist teaching staff in implementing innovative techno-pedagogical projects in teaching & training2) Building up the capacity of health libraries and specialized librarians, so they can improve service for HEI staff & students and train them in digital information management skills 3) Ensuring open access to high-quality scientific and educational resources for HEI staff & students and healthcare professionals, via the development of platforms and supporting teaching and academic staff in posting high quality content on these platforms. The content will also be exploited by healthcare professionals. The impact of this project will be sustained beyond the project end, by (1) making sure that training is tailored to the needs of the HEIs; (2) subscribing to the vision and the strategy of the partner HEIs and (3) ensuring co-ownership of all digital platforms through a network of experts from Partner HEIs. The innovative platform will focus on infectious and (neglected) tropical diseases as a case study, given the specific expertise of all consortium partners. As such, this project aims to improve HE and ultimately healthcare quality in SEA.
