| Summary | Annotation There is a growing health workforce crisis in many countries. In the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region, the disparity in supply and demand, geographic maldistribution in urban and rural setting, and imbalance in the number of different categories of professionals, represent further dimensions of the crisis facing health system development, and its health workforce.<br /><br />Human resources for health include trained health professionals, as well as non-health professionals, working in health systems and those who have gained some caring knowledge and skills and volunteer to support health in families and communities. The <i>Health Workforce Development Series</i>represents a major contribution on the part of the WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean to the Human resources for Health Decade 2006-2015.
