La responsabilité sociale des facultés de médecine en matière de santé des migrants. Le pourquoi et le quoi

Abstract

Worldwide, social accountability is a central treat of medical schools. It stipulates that they must respond to the concerns of the societies they serve and must commit to responding to the health priorities of the populations who will be entrusted to the doctors they produce. International migrations broaden the spectrum of accountability of medical faculties to a much broader dimension to the territories they serve, highlighting significant needs for medical training on the specificities of migrant health, particularly in terms of intercultural communication, knowledge of human rights, as well as skills in global health. In this perspective, we present the basic knowledge that the doctor must acquire in migrant health and propose institutional support measures to be implemented by medical faculties to facilitate the integration of migrant health into the medical training curriculum.
