PRIME

Partnerships in International Medical Education

Mozambique

Two PRIME tutors from Portugal have delivered training programmes in the three main medical schools of Mozambique to around 200 delegates including students and faculty members. The programme in each location covered whole person care, frameworks for ethical decision-making, virtue ethics, and spirituality in healthcare. The former Minister of Health attended the PRIME course in Maputo Medical School and the current Director of the Institute of Health Sciences (the most prestigious nursing school of the country) invited the team to address the opening lecture to about 300 new nursing students, health professionals and members of the faculty.
