What are the Challenges in Building Human Capital in Epidemiology?
Several challenges can hinder the development of human capital in epidemiology:
Resource Limitations: Limited funding and resources can restrict access to education, training, and research opportunities. Brain Drain: The emigration of skilled professionals from low-income countries to higher-income countries can deplete local human capital. Technological Barriers: Inadequate access to modern technologies and data infrastructure can impede research and data analysis efforts. Policy Constraints: Inconsistent or underdeveloped health policies can limit the effectiveness of public health initiatives.
