Avicenna Directories
Avicenna Directories is a comprehensive database of medical schools, schools of pharmacy, schools of public health, educational institutions of traditional and complementary medicine worldwide. It is named after Avicenna, a Persian polymath who is regarded as one of the most significant physicians, astronomers, thinkers and writers of the Islamic Golden Age.
History
The Avicenna Directories were developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the University of Copenhagen in Denmark. The project was initiated in 2004 with the aim of providing a reliable source of information about medical education institutions and their programs across the globe.
Purpose
The primary purpose of the Avicenna Directories is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date list of all recognized medical schools in the world. This information is crucial for prospective students, researchers, and health professionals. It also aids in the international recognition of medical qualifications and promotes the improvement of medical education worldwide.
Structure
The Avicenna Directories consist of two main components: the Avicenna Database and the Avicenna Journal. The Avicenna Database is a searchable online database of medical schools, while the Avicenna Journal publishes articles related to medical education and health workforce planning.
Avicenna Database
The Avicenna Database contains information about medical schools, including their name, location, year of establishment, and the types of programs they offer. It also provides information about the school's accreditation status and the language of instruction.
Avicenna Journal
The Avicenna Journal publishes articles related to medical education and health workforce planning. It serves as a platform for sharing research findings, best practices, and innovative approaches in these fields.
