Abstract
The health workforce is a vital aspect of health systems, both essential in improving
patient and population health outcomes and in addressing contemporary challenges such
as universal health coverage (UHC) and sustainable development goals (SDGs). There is
an increasing body of research that indicates that if the health workforce were to be redesigned from the ground up—based on population needs—we would see a very different
configuration of the health workforce. This makes us wonder how one could design or
develop innovative health workforce solution(s) for the future in order to make the health
workforce more responsive to population needs.
