To keep up with the latest from FIP, follow us on social media!

Priority activities to take forward the FIP Brisbane Calls to Action on accelerating workforce transformation for better health were identified at a workshop during the FIP world congress in Cape Town and are published today.

The workshop, attended by delegates from 22 countries, was structured to ensure comprehensive input through interactive group discussions, with groups assigned to evaluate the feasibility and impact of proposed Brisbane Calls to Action activities. A report of the workshop is available here. The following activities were identified as immediate priorities:

  1. Mixed-methods studies on new emerging practice environments and workforce deployment
  2. Global mapping and case studies of pharmacy-based specialisms and specialisations
  3. Compilation of global use of competency frameworks
  4. Creation of targeted training modules on digital health
  5. Scoping review and guidelines on competency-based training and entrustable professional activities
  6. Development and analysis of global prescribing frameworks
  7. Mental health and wellness initiatives

The report also outlines the proposed next steps by FIP working groups to initiate each project.
