Study demonstrates that quick, technical solutions to HRH crises is not the solution as this has been ongoing problem for 20 years. The answer is to change political infrastructure of the country, and get Governments to invest in long-term plans (even if they go beyond their tenure). They need strategic plans that are state-owned, so they have skills and acumen to implement plans and sustain it. Donors and international organisations should not be in control of how finance is utilised, and if good plan is in place, they will respect - e.g. Ethiopia.

Emigration between HIC's too - workforce 'cycling' with some benefiting and some making losses (Canada & UK)

This article looked at 12 Sub-Saharan African countries and the reasons for the inflows and outflows of healthcare workers. Using this, they found the workforce regeneration rates for the countries, both overall and disparities between them. A big point was the influence of the expanding population on HRH shortages, as despite positive increases in density of the health workforce, it wasn't proportional to the population growth increases. Only 2 countries showed they'd be able to maintain replacement rates through pre-training services.
