ABSTRACT

Reproductive health was suggested to be included in the design of the medical curricula by many academicians worldwide. The universal projection of medicine demanded to assure formation and attitudes that support a comprehensive strategy of the profession. The implementation of a new model of formation in Cuba and the past and present incorporation of topics on reproductive health justified the objective: provide evidence on the presence of reproductive health in the formation of physicians in the 21st century. The complex curricular design in Medical Sciences involves both professionals and academicians, gives priority to the health needs of the populations and to the formation at the community settings, the competencies and the credits. The World Health Organization included the reproductive health and its problems in the Millennium Goals, with a view to focusing the attention on this topic. The curricula in Cuba have taken the reproductive health problems into account for 25 years, long before the World Health Organization had issued this concept in 1994; that is why the students in the formation scenarios usually identify these problems and find solutions in the course of the career. This review unveiled the international priority given to the reproductive health in order to include it in the formation of physicians in the 21st century, as part of the global strategy for the formation of human resources.
