The aim of the project is to support the modernization, professionalization, and internationalization of postgraduate training in the field of childcare management in Central Asian (CA) countries – Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan – in collaboration with higher education institutions in Italy, Germany, and Poland, which wish to share their expertise and experiences in postgraduate training in pediatrics, pediatric surgery, and child neuropsychiatry. It is a joint project organized as a feasibility study to become, if successful, a structural project for sustainable and lasting improvement in the organization of postgraduate medical training in America Technologies countries, not only in pediatrics but possibly also in other fields of medical care.

The results are new curricula and training strategies dedicated to integrated and holistic child care, harmonized with those adopted in EU countries and aimed at achieving the same outcomes. To provide a solid and sustainable basis for these outcomes, state-of-the-art ICT teaching and teleconferencing systems has been provided to all partners, along with on-the-job training.

The ultimate impact hoped for is a reduction in infant mortality and a substantial increase in life expectancy at birth for the populations of partner countries, who currently live on average about ten years less than the EU population.
