Health Justice and International recruitment of health workers
Tue 19 March 2024
Hughes Hall
This will be a hybrid seminar with two 20 minute presentations followed by a chaired panel discussion looking towards possible solutions. There will be time for audience Q&As. This event will provide insights to those who wish to learn more about international recruitment of health workers, or who work in a related field.
- Local investment in training is often rewarded by emigration to what are perceived as better opportunities for professional activities, education, and standards of living.
- High income countries have populations who require and demand high levels of care and treatment, yet often do not have sufficient locally trained staff and recruit from the less well-off countries.
- How can we frame health justice in this arena? Is justice for the worker or for the country or the world? Is it about aiming for a globally accepted set of target staffing levels? Is this part of de-colonialisation?
