An ad hoc committee under the auspices of the Institute of Medicine will plan a two-day public workshop that is aimed at exploring, explaining, and informing translation of models and lessons learned relating to innovative investment in nursing and midwifery training and enterprising practices as avenues for empowerment of women, and strengthening of community-based health services in lower income countries. Presentations and discussions will also explore ways in which these models might be advanced globally to better achieve the social mission of the health professions and to explore their relevance and potential application in the United States.
