The number of medical and, more recently, allied health professional schools which have introduced IMCI into their teaching programmes in the Region keeps increasing. The list has been updated based on information made available during the Second Consultation on IMCI Pre-service Training, held in Cairo, Egypt, from 27 to 31 August 2006. It is recognized that the list may be incomplete, as it includes only the information which has been provided to us. Schools which have taken steps to introduce IMCI into their teaching programmes are encouraged to provide us with updated information, briefly describing the year of introduction and process followed.
