The Besrour Centre for Global Family Medicine at the College of Family Physicians of Canada is a hub of international collaboration dedicated to advancing family medicine globally. The purpose of the Besrour Center for Global Family Medicine community of practice project will be to exchange information, work in sub-groups and increase learnings. The Community aims to share practices, lessons learned and increase dialogue and knowledge sharing. This will allow to build networks, develop working relationships and share resources.

Our vision is to lead the way in creating a world where no one is left behind when it comes to accessing quality primary care, and our mission is to foster collaboration to advance family medicine around the world.

We will be guided by the following values:

  • Equity – by recognizing the inherent dignity of every human being and the just distribution of resources and access to marginalized and vulnerable groups
  • Justice – by ensuring that individuals and groups have fair and impartial access to the benefits of society, including the right to health
  • Excellence – by striving and adhering to the highest standards of quality, integrity, professionalism, leadership, and evidence-informed and patient-centred care
  • Reciprocity – by promoting the collaborative and multidirectional exchange of experience, knowledge, and capacity-building among partners and their communities
  • Respect – for each other’s cultures, norms, and perspectives
