Welcome to the Network for Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice in Health in Latin America and the Caribbean (REIP)

REIP is made up of a group of people and institutions interested in Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Health Practices in Latin American and Caribbean countries. It was initially proposed in 2016 during the Regional Technical Meeting promoted by the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO/WHO): “Interprofessional education in health: improving human resources capacity to achieve universal health”, held in Bogotá, Colombia.

Consequently, the network was created as a strategy among countries interested in developing Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practices in health, with the purpose of contributing to improving the quality of health services and the training of human resources for health through the work of interprofessional teams.
