Asset-Based Community Development as a Strategy for Developing Local Global Health Curricula.

A significant and growing proportion of US children have immigrant parents, an issue of increasing importance to pediatricians. Training globally minded pediatric residents to address health inequities related to globalization is an important reason to expand educational strategies around local global health (LGH). HIP Investigator, Dr. Ryan Coller et al. developed a curriculum in the pediatric global health residency track at UW to address gaps in LGH education and to increase resident knowledge about local health disparities for global community members.
