Description
Capacity building is key to the advance of health care in the developing world, but capacity building can take several forms, and it is not yet clear which forms and funding models are most effective. The International Society of Nephrology (ISN) has developed and sustained a portfolio of global outreach programs that make a unique contribution at low cost to the appropriate training and continuing support of nephrologists throughout the developing world. We describe the programs and present encouraging findings of their outcomes. Finally, we reflect on how the ISN interventions and evaluations measure up against recommended approaches in the literature and consider lessons for ISN and other organizations involved in planning, evaluating, and benchmarking similar programs. © 2016 International Society of Nephrology
