Despite recent calls to engage in scholarship with attention to anti-racism, equity, and social justice at a global level in Health Professions Education (HPE), the field has made few significant advances in incorporating the views of the so-called "Other" in understanding the nature, origin, and scope of knowledge as well as the epistemic justification of knowledge production. Editors, authors, and reviewers must take responsibility for questioning existing systems and structures, specifically about how they diffuse the knowledge of a few and silence the knowledge of many. This article presents 12 recommendations proposed by (GSCAC), a group of HPE professionals, representing countries in the Global South, to help the Global North enact practical changes to become more inclusive and engage in authentic and representative work in HPE publishing. This list is not all-encompassing but a first step to begin rectifying non-inclusive structures in our field.
尽管最近有人呼吁在全球层面的卫生专业教育(HPE)中开展关注反种族主义、公平和社会正义的学术研究,但在将所谓“他者”的观点纳入对知识的性质、起源和范围以及知识生产的认识论辩护的理解方面,该领域几乎没有取得重大进展。编辑、作者和审稿人必须负责质疑现有系统和结构,特别是它们如何传播少数人的知识而压制多数人的知识。本文提出了由一群代表全球南方国家的HPE专业人员组成的全球南方卫生专业教育行动委员会(GSCAC)提出的12项建议,以帮助北方国家做出切实改变,在HPE出版中变得更具包容性,并开展真实且具有代表性的工作。这份清单并不全面,但却是开始纠正我们领域中不包容结构的第一步。
