4. sharing evidence-based public health teaching models of innovation and good practice
Objectives
respecting the diversity of national and European population health challenges and threats
Help staff members from ME HEIs to enhance their expert knowledge in public health
Support organization of training, workshops, networking, good practice exchange
Contribute to educators’ capital development, teaching capacity building
Increase the visibility of ME HEIs staff members and participating institutions’ profiles in international teaching community in the interdisciplinary area of public health.

5. Assumption 1: Adaptations’ possibility of EU practice and standards to ME education approaches
Assumption 2: Interest of ME HEIs and their staff members for modern approaches in public health education and research
Risks
Low interest for the proposed public health concepts by ME HEIs and their staff members
Low background in interdisciplinary fields of public health
Gap between training program and specified training goals
Low quality of conducted trainings and less commitment of trainers or trainees
Delay in achieving EU standards and establishing formal connections and inclusion in relevant EU organisations/associations

6. Training activities to increase knowledge
pedagogical approaches
and technical
issues
Two dimensions of spreading teaching competencies and expertise in multidisciplinary area of public health
Having in mind that, only by growing in both axes we can significantly contribute to realization of all defined objectives, we are planning to organise events hosted by experienced EU partners in specific fields (e.g. workshops, training including virtual, expert visits), while joint multidisciplinary training events aimed on sharing experience in pedagogical approaches and technical issues will be hosted in ME.
