Abstract: | Background The early decades of the 21st century are considered to be the era of human resources for health (HRH). The World Health Report (WHR) 2006 launched the
Health Workforce Decade (2006–2015), with high priority given for countries to develop effective workforce policies and strategies.
In many countries in the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR), particularly those classified as Low and Low-Middle Income Countries
(LMICs), the limited knowledge about the nature, scope, composition and needs of HRH is hindering health sector reform. This
highlights an urgent need to understand the current reality of HRH in several EMR countries. |
