Co-Creating Health with Students

What is the adequate role of students in health care? Should students be just learners, or should they act with a system relevant role? Can they help to transform our health care system towards more patient centeredness? 

We address these fundamental questions of health professional education and work together to form a more participatory learning environment.

Our Team 

 

We are a transdisciplinary team of students, researchers and professors from University Witten/Herdecke. 

We are working co-creatively together to foster the development of co-creativity in general in the medical education.

Our Initiaitve


We are a group of international students, medical educators and reseachers that learn together how students can work as co-providers of care in the medical system and learn from it. 

We have first met at the online conference "learning by contributing: envisioning a new role for students" in November 2020. In 2022 our focus is to explore the role of students at the Cambridge integrated clerckship (CIC) program in Boston at Harvard medical school/ Cambridge health allience.
