Medical anthropology is a growing subfield of anthropology, especially as a subject within health education. Medical anthropology knowledge and skills improve the satisfaction of patients and health professionals, better health outcomes for patients, improve communication, avoid conflicts, or make it possible to deal successfully with these etc. The Arab region is an underserved one when it comes to medical anthropology in health education. We carried out the first project that trained teachers for medical anthropology in health education in Egypt / the Arab region in 2020 / 2021. Training with a regional focus is crucial to create a competent local workforce
