"Towards a scaling-up of training and education for health workers" constitutes the
collaboration of over 20 top medical journals led by Human Resources for
Health. Over the coming 12 months, each journal will contribute in their own unique way to the theme of
scaling-up training and education of health workers, thereby addressing the
critical need for a skilled, sustainable health workforce internationally and
in the developing world.

The following six partnering journals – including Human Resources for Health
– have already published their contributing issues:

• American Journal of Public
  Health (USA)
• Ciência &
  Saúde Coletiva (Brazil)
• Croatian Medical Journal (Croatia)
• Education For Health (USA)
• Open Medicine

Human Resources for Health will publish articles on this theme on an
ongoing basis up to June 2009. To keep up-to-date with the publication of
further articles, please sign up for email alerts. Regular updates will also be posted on the Human
Resources for Health Blog.
