Abstract:
Global health education is a field of education that focuses on health issues directly or indirectly caused by transnational factors. At present, rapid progress has been made in global health education, and universities in foreign countries are establishing educational institutions and providing various forms of education, including degree programs, and non-degree programs. Furthermore, many measures have been taken to support the development of global health education, such as financial supports and credit recognition. Learning from the international experience, China should support and promote the development of global health education during the reform of medical education, strengthen the construction of global health education institutions at universities, encourage various forms of educational activities, and enhance the internationalization of global health education.
