Results: Currently, ‘new’health challenges and educational needs as a result of the globalisation process are discussed and linked to the evolving term‘global health’. The lack of a common definition of this termcomplicates attempts... to analyse global health in the field of education. The proposed GHE framework addresses these problems and presents a set of key characteristics of education in this field. The framework builds on the models of‘social determinants of health’and‘globalisation and health’and is oriented towards‘health for all’and‘health equity’. It provides an action-oriented construct for a bottom-up engagement with global health by the health workforce. Ten indicators are deduced for use in monitoring and evaluation.

Бюро ВОЗ в Украине инициировало написание этого отчета для оценки развития
интегрированных услуг для людей употребляющих наркотики в рамках ответа Украины на эп...демию ВИЧ. После комплексной оценки работы украинских программ интегрированной помощи в 2009 году, три сайта в Днепропетровске, Кривом Роге, и Симферополе были определены как отвечающие высоким стандартам, и на примере работы которых смогут научиться другие программы. Они еще далеки от совершенства, однако каждый сайт показал выдающийся прогресс во внедрении интегрированных услуг. Целью данной публикации является представление опыта этих реальных практических моделей для Украинского правительства и неправительственных
организаций, работающих над развитием интегрированного подхода в других учреждениях.
