Capacity building in health economics. Opportunities for training in developing countries
概述了非洲、亚洲和拉丁美洲在卫生经济学方面的培训机会，详细介绍了泰国、南非和特立尼达的课程，并讨论了国际和区域网络的作用，强调区域资源优先。
This paper provides an overview of the opportunities available for training in health economics in the regions of Africa, Asia and Latin America, following a WHO forum on Capacity Building in Health Economics held in Geneva in December 1995. It describes in brief the training opportunities available throughout Asia, Africa and Latin America. It then gives a detailed resume of courses available for students and professionals at Chulanlongkorn University, Thailand, the University of Cape Town, South Africa and the University of the West Indies, Trinidad. It also describes the international and regional networks which have developed and now provide further opportunities for training. The final section of this paper looks to the future and suggests that although continued financial and academic support will be needed from the countries of the North, the development of regional capacities in health economics should be as much as possible through regional resources, and regional strategies should be a priority.
