Managing health workforce migration - towards a global code of practice
Health worker migration has been increasing worldwide over the past decades, especially from lower income countries whose health systems are already very fragile. To address this situation, the World Health Assembly adopted resolution WHA57.19 which called for the development of a Code of Practice on the International Recruitment of Health Personnel.
A multi-stakeholder process to articulate the content of the Code has been initiated. The consultative process of drafting of the Code is being led by WHO through its mechanisms for global policy making.
