ABSTRACT This experience report aimed to analyze the vocational education of ombudsmen in the Unified Health System (SUS). This project was a partnership between the Sergio Arouca National School of Public Health (ENSP/FIOCRUZ), the Brazilian Network of Public Health Schools (RedEscola), and the SUS Strategic and Participatory Management Secretary (SGEP/MS). Considered pioneering, the vocational education was developed within the logic of a participatory process which involved municipal, state and national actors from SUS Ombudsman offices, state public health institutions/schools, the National Council of Municipal Health Secretaries (CONASEMS), and the RedEscola's Technical and Executive Secretary in a consensual governance articulation resulting in the qualification of 451 ombudsmen.

Características y contenido de los programas de Magíster en Salud Pública en Chile / Features and contents of master programs in public health in Chile

Background: In Chile, public health training grew both in enrollment and in the number of universities offering programs on the subject. Aim: To compare the academic characteristics and the contents of the master's programs in public health offered by Chilean universities. Material and Methods: A search of all master's programs that include the word "public health " in their title was made, excluding those that did not declare current students in 2020. The academic characteristics and content of each program were compiled according to the information declared by each university. The contents were grouped according to the list of core competencies for the public health professional of the Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER). Results: Eleven programs were included, most of them are carried out in face-to-face modality. The academic load is expressed in Transferable Credit System credits (62-71), credits (87-125) or teaching hours (1252-2048). All programs declare to have a graduation activity, with a heterogeneous academic load. All programs have basic subjects in epidemiology and more than 60% include introductory topics in public health, research methodology, and health services management. No program declares demography or food safety as compulsory subjects. Conclusions: There is heterogeneity in the academic load and the contents between the programs. It is necessary to establish common criteria in the training of future public health professionals, at least in the compulsory subjects and the minimum academic load.

Incorporating appropriate technology into North American schools of public health / La incorporación de la tecnología adecuada en las escuelas de salud pública de América del Norte

El término tecnología adecuada se refiere a la tecnología sanitaria que se crea, produce, ofrece y monitorea en un contexto general donde se toman en cuenta los sistemas, las personas y la comunidad. Esta tecnología abarca el diseño, desarrollo y adopción de productos sanitarios, entre ellos nuevos medicamentos, vacunas y métodos diagnósticos, y de medios computadorizados aplicables a la genómica funcional, vigilancia epidemiológica, evaluación de la carga de morbilidad, adjudicación de recursos sanitarios, creación de modelos matemáticos y análisis de efectividad en función del costo. En conjunto, estos medios son especialmente promisorios para el control y la eliminación de diversas enfermedades tropicales que han recibido escasa atención. Actualmente, buena parte de la investigación y el desarrollo en torno a tecnologías adecuadas está a cargo de alianzas formadas recientemente entre los sectores público y privado. No obstante, es preciso incrementar la investigación y el entrenamiento en este campo en las escuelas de salud pública de América del Norte en vista de los efectos sanitarios y económicos que se calcula que tendrá la tecnología adecuada en países en desarrollo.
