项目摘要

CAPACITY BUILDING FOR HEALTH PROFESSION EDUCATION AND RESEARCH IN MALAWI (CHEER- Malawi) PROJECT SUMMARY: Malawi faces the double encumbrance of high burden of communicable diseases and an increasing burden of non-communicable diseases. From the latest Global Burden of Disease Report (2013), HIV and AIDS (34.9%) and other communicable conditions such as malaria, diarrheal diseases and respiratory infections combined (23.2%) are the major contributors to Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYS)[1]. Under the Health Sector Strategic Plan I 2011-2016, Malawi made substantial health gains by reducing infant mortality, Under-5 mortality, maternal mortality ratio (MMR) and HIV prevalence among women and men age 15-49 years[2]. Despite the progress, Malawi's MMR and neonatal mortality rate (NMR) are among the highest in Sub-Saharan Africa. Educational programs at COM and KCN have in part contributed to the strengthening of the health system through the production of pre-service as well as the training of post-basic health professionals and conduct of relevant health research. Despite the increase in the numbers of health professionals produced by both COM and KCN, significant gaps remaingiven theMalawian population is rapidly increasing in size. The challenge in further increasing the output from educational institutions, while maintaining and improving the quality of its graduates, call for innovative ways of pedagogy and research. This can be achieved by improving the quality of Health Profession Education (HPE) through establishment of a center of excellence in HPE; strengthening research capacity and governance; encouraging inter-professional education and training; and decentralizing education and training to the community setting including rural and peripheral sites. This has potential to increase access to health education thus ensuring continuing professional development of health care workers. This will be done through long-term and sustainable coordination between educational, community and research institutions in a collaborative manner to address the health needs of the nation. This grant application brings together a consortium of key institutions and individuals that are currently championing health profession education and research in Malawi. The consortium is purposefully designed to build capacity within COM, the only public higher education institution offering training in medicine and degree level allied health programs such as physiotherapy, pharmacy and medical laboratory science; KCN, the only higher education institution offering nursing degree programs at undergraduate and postgraduate levels; Malawi College of Health Sciences (MCHS), the major training institutions for diploma level allied health workers and nurses; and the Malawi Ministry of Health and Population (MOH), the major provider of health services, to ensure maximal buy-in at national policy level and sustainability as well as strengthening inter- professional collaboration in education, research and service delivery. 1

马拉维卫生专业教育和研究的能力建设（Cheer- 马拉维）项目摘要：马拉维面临着高昂的传染病负担的双重负担，以及越来越多的负担非传染性疾病。来自最新的全球疾病负担报告（2013年），艾滋病毒和艾滋病（34.9％）以及其他传染病，例如疟疾，腹泻疾病和呼吸道感染（23.2％）是造成残疾调整生命年（达利人）[1]的主要贡献者。根据卫生部门战略计划I 201-2016，马拉维通过减少婴儿取得了可观的健康增长男女年龄的死亡率，5岁以下死亡率，孕产妇死亡率（MMR）和HIV患病率 15-49岁[2]。尽管取得了进展，但马拉维的MMR和新生儿死亡率（NMR）还是最高的在撒哈拉以南非洲。 COM和KCN的教育计划部分有助于加强卫生系统通过生产前职业以及后基础卫生的培训专业人士和相关健康研究的行为。尽管COM和KCN生产的卫生专业人员数量有所增加，但差距很大 Remaingvivaiven的义大威人口的规模迅速增加。进一步增加产出的挑战从教育机构来维护和提高毕业生质量的同时，要求创新教学和研究的方式。这可以通过提高健康专业教育的质量来实现（HPE）通过建立HPE卓越中心；增强研究能力和治理；鼓励专业教育和培训；以及分散教育和培训到包括农村和外围场所在内的社区环境。这有可能增加获得健康的机会教育，从而确保持续的卫生保健工作者的专业发展。这将通过教育，社区和研究机构之间的长期和可持续协调解决国家健康需求的协作方式。该赠款申请汇集了一个关键机构和个人的财团在马拉维倡导卫生专业教育和研究。该财团有目的地设计为在COM内建立能力，COM是唯一提供医学和学位培训的公共高等教育机构水平盟友健康计划，例如物理疗法，药房和医学实验室科学； KCN，唯一的高等教育机构在本科和研究生级别提供护理学位课程；马拉维卫生科学学院（MCHS），文凭级别的主要培训机构盟友卫生工人和护士；以及马拉维卫生与人口部（MOH），卫生的主要提供商服务，以确保在国家政策层面和可持续性上最大程度地买入以及加强教育，研究和服务提供专业合作。 1
