Abstract:
Cross-border collaboration in global health education and training is crucial for effectively addressing global health challenges. Universities in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Thailand offer various forms of global health education and training, including dual or joint degree programs, exchange programs, and international elective courses or field courses, all with clear characteristics of cross-border collaborative education. Chinese Universities should put emphasis on establishing cooperation mechanisms with foreign institutions, building platforms for cross-border collaboration in global health education and training, and strengthening faculty development in this process. Moreover, it is necessary to develop cross-border collaborative education and training programs and leverage modern information technologies to advance the development of global health cross-border collaborative education and training and the cultivation of talents.
