Join Us for The AFREhealth Health Economics Webinar Series. This webinar is the first in a series of Health Economics related webinars. The webinar will provide an Overview of Health Economics and will include a case study involving forecasting health workforce needs, supply and the cost implications for Universal Health Coverage.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for adequate health workforce planning, development of responsive health systems to respond to health emergencies. The goal of ensuring universal health coverage has particularly been affected by chronic underinvestment in health workforce.

The webinar will outline six critical considerations for aligning health workforce planning to the population health needs and service delivery models. An application of health economic principles and methodologies to develop a conceptual and empirical framework for comprehensive health workforce planning for universal health coverage will be provided with examples from various countries.

The webinar will be delivered by leading experts in health economics and health workforce policy and planning.

Introduction: There is a growing evidence base in HPE across the globe. This evidence is both from high income and low-income contexts. High-stakes decisions such as selection, assessment, and licensure demand an evidence-informed approach to HPE. Knowledge translation aims to promote the uptake and application of research evidence to improve educational practices and ultimately patient care. Efforts to inform and improve HPE should be underpinned by the science (theories, models, methods) of knowledge translation, also known as implementation science. There is urgent need in sub-Saharan Africa to operationalize current evidence into our teaching and learning activities. By the end of this webinar, participants shall have understood the importance of translating HPE scholarship into educational practice.

Join Us for The AFREhealth/ACHEST Webinar.

Introduction/Objectives: Community engagement refers to public participation, consultation and stakeholder engagement. The Community Engagement Framework is grounded in four pillars: People, Practice, Policy and Performance. Therefore, for the health workforce to be prepared to engage with the community, these principles must be considered. This starts with the way they are trained. They need to be exposed to the communities they will serve early in their career. They need to be trained in such a manner that leads them to appreciate the link between disease and the way in which people live in their communities so as to provide, maintain and improve the health and wellbeing of the population. This should be reflected not only in education but in service and research. This webinar is intended to help us reflect on this. How do we train, recruit and retain a health workforce that understands and cares for the community?
