Conference Paper

Community and Commitment

At the 6th Congress of Health Professions Educators, Community and Commitment, participants wrestled with the definition of a community — is it the health sciences building(s), the university campus, the neighborhood beyond the walls, or (through electronic connections and airplanes) does it extend to others in a global community? Variations on this definition emerged and reemerged throughout the conference.
