EDITORIAL BOARD

Education for Health: change in learning and practice is designed to be of interest and help to all those who make policy and those who implement policy concerned with change. Such change focuses on education, research and practice for improving access to, and quality of, health care in the context of changing opportunities and constraints across the world.

Education for Health, formerly Annals of Community-Oriented Education, is unique, it addresses all caring professions, and it is truly international in its content and concerns. In addition to its readers in the Network of Community-Oriented Educational Institutions for Health Sciences the journal circulates in well over fifty countries.

Education for Health addresses itself specifically to practitioners, scientists and administrators with an interest in education in any of the health professions. The health professions need to continue to adapt themselves to changes in the needs for and of the health services in response to advances in science, technology, population growth and related environmental, social and economic factors. There is a close interdependence between health services and education in the health sciences. Undergraduates, postgraduates and practising members in all the health professions need to be helped to be able to adapt themselves to change and to be able to participate in the management of change.

In addition to original refereed papers, each issue includes short communications, reports, letters to the editor, book reviews and abstracts of selected papers from the literature.
