WFME President, Professor David Gordon, presented to a conference of more than 100 attendees from medical schools in the Caribbean community. His presentation focused on global medical education initiatives and the WFME Recognition Programme for Accreditation Agencies, including the role of accreditation in ensuring good quality medical education, and in turn the benefits to patient health.

The workshop on Capacity Building, which was sponsored by the Caribbean Accreditation Authority for Education in Medicine and other Health Professions (CAAM-HP), explored ways to enhance standards and strengthening regional accreditation systems across the Caribbean.
