In addition to the damaging public health, social and economic effects of COVID-19, health professions faculty around the world have faced staggering upheaval in the education of their students and junior doctors. Despite the formidable challenges, some silver linings have emerged in health professions education. The paper aims to describe themes from reflections of international health professions educators on these silver linings using an appreciative inquiry framework.
