USAID Facilitates Dialogue Among Cental Asia’s Medical Universities
On June 20 representatives from Central Asia’s medical universities gathered for a conference in Dushanbe, Tajikistan supported by the USAID ZdravPlus project. Participants from Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan developed and discussed universal standards applicable to all Central Asian medical universities and did a mock accreditation for the Tajik State Medical University. These standards will help ensure high quality of the teaching process and will form a good basis for medical institutes, academies, and universities that strive to achieve equal standing with other medical training centers around the world.
ZdravPlus has been working with the region’s Council of Rectors and other legislative bodies since 2005 to bring medical accreditation standards for medical institutions in line with the international standards.
