This workshop addresses the critical need to internationalize medical education in response to an increasingly interconnected and globalized world. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the necessity for health professionals to view themselves as part of a global medical community, equipped to tackle collective challenges that transcend borders. Participants explore the foundational frameworks of Internationalization of Medical Education (IoME), including the market, social transformation, and liberal models that shape global educational strategies. The session also introduces the concept of Medical Science Diplomacy, which merges humanitarian values with global health policy, positioning students as ambassadors for international collaboration and cultural understanding. Through interactive discussions, the workshop aims to develop sustainable models for integrating global perspectives into medical education, fostering a new generation of health professionals equipped to drive global health outcomes and collaborative partnerships.
