ERASMUS+ Programme – MED - HEALTH Project number:561748-EPP-1- 2015-1-PSEPPKA2-CBHE-JP

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The existing health care system in ENPI south region (orientated towardsspecialists) is not in position to combat the numerous health problemsrelated to the living environment and lifestyles of the population.Furthermore, the existing knowledge in public health is still based on thetraditional bio-medical approach, which is inadequate to provide solutionfor the current health and health policy priorities.

ERASMUS+ Programme – MED - HEALTH Project number:561748-EPP-1- 2015-1-PSEPPKA2-CBHE-JP

Specialists’ knowledge in the field of public health is confined withindifferent and particular specialist branches (epidemiology, hygiene, socialmedicine, health statistics and informatics, and occupational medicine).Overall public health is medically orientated, with very little participation ofother professions in the design and implementation of its programmes andactivities. The education of public health personnel is not multi-professional(which can best be achieved in postgraduate programmes).
