About This CDThis CD offers a comprehensive executive summary of the Human Resources for Health (HRH) Action Workshop in Johannesburg and presents a detailed agenda with links to HRH presentations, notes from working group discussions and HRH action plans that identify priorities and next steps. In keeping with the Workshop’s methodology, which encouraged a highly participatory approach to knowledge sharing and respected the language and contributions of individual participants, the notes and action plans have not been summarized and have been only lightly copyedited. The effort in Johannesburg—based in conversation, participation and cooperation among participants—represents a step in the evolving process of building human resources for health. This CD is designed to facilitate post-Workshop collaboration through further dialogue, critical thinking, knowledge sharing, planning and action.
