The ISAASC initiative is consistent with a general awareness that societies worldwide are under important mutations due to political, economic, socio cultural and environmental factors and that health systems need support from key stakeholders, including academic institutions in the health sector, to be able to deliver efficient, equitable and sustainable health services to everyone.
One of the strategies to create such a momentum is to consult accrediting bodies as well as concerned national, regional and international organizations worldwide on the opportunity to examine how current standards and processes can/should be adjusted to ensure medical schools’ missions and programs are optimally geared towards making the greatest impact on people’s health.
The purpose of this survey is to gain insight into accreditation standards and to estimate the extent to which accrediting bodies of medical schools worldwide intend to review their standards to ensure a better impact of medical schools on people’s health.
- To communicate with the accreditation bodies worldwide.
- To engage in a sequence of consultations to explore their views and recommendations on the opportunity to revisit accreditation standards and processes in the light of health system challenges.
- To analyze the views and recommendations received from the different accreditation agencies to synthesize a coherent perspective.
- To publish and disseminate the conclusion of the consultations
