Some Sociocultural Factors in the Administration of Technical Assistance and Training in Health

Cultural change in the Middle East has been very rapid in the last fifty years, especially since World War I. These changes are probably most evident with regard to the expansion of Western educational programs which have had a profound effect on the various social relationships as they exist at community and family levels. They have had an effect on the prevailing values and practices of the Middle East.
