Why did you choose Severance as your training hospital? I came to Severance to have a subspecialty in Dermatologic Surgery and Mohs Micrographic Surgery. It has always been my passion to perform Dermatologic Surgery, and Severance Hospital has one of the best training programs for this specialty. In the Philippines, there are only a few Dermatologic Surgeons, I will be able to serve more people after my training here. Yonsei Severance is known for having the brightest Professors and Physicians, the most advanced technology in healthcare, and has paved the way for the globalization of medicine. 4) How long is your training period in Korea?

My first impression of Korea is that everything was fast paced and done perfectly. It is one of the attitudes that I have come to adapt, and I believe it has increased my productivity and efficiency. I am very impressed with the exceptional results that come out off teamwork and being goal oriented, these are the values that I will bring with me when I return home. 11)What is the best memory so far during your stay here? The best experience during my stay is completing surgeries using the skills and knowledge that my Professors have passed on to me.

My stay here in Seoul has also allowed me to learn many things about Korean culture, and one of the things I will bring home with me is the exceptional work ethic that they have. I have no regrets doing the Severance International Fellowship, I believe it is one of the best decisions I made in my life career-wise, and I would gladly do it again without any second thoughts. I have made new friends that I will surely keep even when I return home to the Philippines, and I am now equipped with knowledge that I could never have acquired if I didn't move out of my comfort zone.

제4회 에비슨 글로벌 리더십 어워드(AvisonGlobal Leadership Award) 수상 사진 나이지리아에는 약 700명의 안과의사가 있다. 얼핏 적지 않아 보이지만, 약 2억명에 달하는 인구를 고려하면 이 숫자는 턱없이 부족하다. 참고로 한국은 5000만 인구에 약 3000명의 안과의사가 있다. 이다코는 나이지리아 북부 카노(Kano) 지역에 위치한 ECWA 선교병원에서 근무하고 있다. 카노는 인구 약 1400만명의 지역으로, 주민 대부분이 무슬림이며 극심한 가난, 높은 범죄율, 그리고 많은 안과 질환 환자들이 있는 지역이다. 최근에는 테러로 인한 사상자도 많이 발생했고, 함께 근무하던 동료 안과의사도 더 안전한 지역으로 이직했다. 이다코는 병원진료 뿐만 아니라 이동진료를 통해 무료 개안 수술도 진행하고 있다. 이동 진료는 고가의 의료장비를 싣고 다녀야 하기 때문에 테러와 강도에 노출될 위험이 크다. 2003년에 의과대학을 졸업한 이다코는 2016년에 안과 전문의 자격을 취득했다. 나이지리아에서 안과 전문의는 매우 귀한 존재로, 좋은 시설과 높은 보수를 제공하는 사립병원에 쉽게 취직할 수 있다. 실제로 그의 지도교수도 이다코가 수도에 있는 병원에서 일하기를 권유했지만, 그는 이를 단호히 거절하고 열악한 환경의 ECWA 선교병원에 남았다. 그 이유를 그는 이렇게 설명한다. “하나님은 저를 사용하셔서 보지못하는 사람들의 눈을 뜨게 하는 부르심을 주셨습니다. 이는 무슬림들 가운데서 그리스도의 사랑을 전하는 기쁨 그 자체입니다.” 이다코에게 열악한 환경에서 가장필요한 덕목이 무엇인지 물었다. 그는 “포기하지 않는 인내”라고 답한다.“2022년과 2023년에 세브란스 안과병원에서 두 차례 연수교육을 받았습니다. 그때 들은 에비슨 박사님의 이야기는 저에게 큰 감동을 주었습니다. 특히,그분이 갈라디아서 6장 9절 말씀을 가장 좋아했다는 사실을 알고 매우 놀랐습니다. 에비슨 박사님이 열악한 환경속에서도 포기하지 않고 40년 이상 사역을 지속할 수 있었던 것은 이 말씀이 가르쳐주는 인내심 덕분이었을 것입니다.” 이다코는 열악한 환경 속에서도 묵묵히 소명을 실천하며, 에비슨의 정신을 행동으로 보여주고 있다. 그의 사역은 단순한 의료 활동을 넘어, 환자들에게 희망과 사랑을 전하는 귀감이 되고있다. 이러한 그의 헌신은 많은 사람들에게 깊은 감동을 주고 있고, 그는 2024년 제4회 에비슨 글로벌 리더십 어워드의 주인공으로 선정됐다. “우리가 선을 행하되 낙심하지 말지니, 피곤하지 아니하면 때가 이르매 거두리라.” (갈라디아서 6:9) Patience Learned at Severance On November 20, Dr. Ugbede Idakwo, an ophthalmologist from Nigeria, was honored with the 2024 Avison Global Leadership Award at the conclusion of the 2024 Medical Mission Month. The award, which recognizes individuals who have connected with Severance through its mission programs and have demonstrated selfless dedication to healthcare in underserved communities, was presented to Dr. Idakwo for his exceptional contributions to medical missions in Nigeria. Dr. Idakwo works at the ECWA Mission Hospital in Kano, located in northern Nigeria. Kano, home to over 14 million people, faces significant challenges, including poverty, high crime rates, and a high prevalence of eye diseases. In addition to his work at the hospital, Dr. Idakwo runs mobile cataract surgery clinics, often transporting expensive medical equipment through areas threatened by terrorism and armed robbery. Despite these challenges, he has remained committed to serving his community, treating hundreds of cataract patients and providing free surgeries in some of the most impoverished regions of Nigeria. The situation in Nigeria, with roughly 700 ophthalmologists for a population of nearly 200 million, underscores the severity of the issue. For comparison, South Korea, with a population of 50 million, has approximately 3,000 ophthalmologists. The scarcity of specialists has driven Dr. Idakwo to work under difficult conditions, but his unwavering dedication stems from his faith. In a recent interview, he explained, “God has called me to help open the eyes of those who cannot see. It is my joy to share Christ’s love among Muslims.” He shared that his resolve to remain in the challenging environment of the ECWA Mission Hospital, rather than pursue a more lucrative position in a private hospital, is rooted in his sense of divine calling. When asked about the virtues necessary to sustain his work, Dr. Idakwo highlighted "unyielding perseverance". He reflected on his time at Severance Ophthalmology Hospital, where he participated in training sessions in 2022 and 2023. There, he learned about Dr. Avison, a figure whose dedication inspired him deeply. “Dr. Avison’s ability to sustain his ministry for over 40 years in difficult circumstances was undoubtedly due to the perseverance taught in Galatians 6:9,” he said, referring to Dr. Avison’s favorite Bible verse. Dr. Idakwo continues to serve with the same quiet dedication that defines his ministry. His ability to treat patients, offer hope, and embody the spirit of perseverance has made him a fitting recipient of the 2024 Avison Global Leadership Award. As the award citation notes, Dr. Idakwo’s life exemplifies the message from Galatians 6:9: “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

외국인 연수의사 사전교육 프로그램 수료식 제중원보건개발원이 9월 27일 교수회의실에서 외국인 연수의사 대상 사전교육 프로그램(Severance International FellowshipPrime Course, SIF-PC) 수료식을 진행했다. 2020년 3월 처음 시작한 SIF-PC 는 국내에서 연수 예정인 외국인 의사를 대상으로 한국의 문화, 보건의료체계, 의료원 소개, 임상연구 및 통계 관련 전문 지식을 공유하는 프로그램이다. 프로그램을 수료한 외국인 의사는 임상연수를 2개월간 수행하면 보건복지부에 ‘제한적 의료행위 승인신청’을 할 수 있다. 일반적으로 국내에서 연수하는 외국인 의사는 한국 의사면허를 소지하지 않기 때문에 참관연수만 진행할 수 있다. SIF-PC는 민간 의료기관이 직접 사전교육 프로그램을 개발해 시행하는 국내 최초 및 유일의 외국인 의사 대상 사전교육 프로그램이다. SIFPC를 시행하기 전까지 사전교육프로그램은 한국 보건복지부와 협약을 맺은 중동 국가 출신 의사들에게만 국가 차원에서 제공됐다. 의료원의 SIF-PC 시행에 따라 향후 다양한 국 적의 해외 의사들에게도 ‘제한적 의료행위’를 신청할 수 있는 기회가 주어지게 됐다. 이번 SIF-PC에는 총 4명의 외국 인 의사가 참여했으며, 타 의료기관 (서울아산병원)에서 연수 예정인 태국 의사가 포함돼있다. 염준섭 국제개발센터 소장은 “SIF-PC를 한국의 대표적인 외국인 의사 대상 사전교육 프로그램으로 발전시키겠다”고 말했다. The Yonsei Institute for Global Health hosted a completion ceremony for the Severance International Fellowship Prime Course (SIF-PC) on September 27 at the Faculty Conference Room. This pre-training program is designed to equip international medical trainees with the knowledge and skills necessary for clinical training in South Korea. Launched in March 2020, the SIF-PC aims to provide foreign doctors with essential insights into Korean culture, the healthcare system, clinical research, and statistics. Upon completion, participants are eligible to undergo a two-month clinical training period and apply for approval for "limited medical practice" from the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Typically, foreign doctors in Korea are only allowed to engage in observational training due to the absence of a Korean medical license. The SIF-PC is the first and only pre-training program for foreign doctors in Korea developed and directly implemented by a private medical institution. Prior to its launch, such programs were offered only at the national level for doctors from Middle Eastern countries, under agreements with the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare. With the introduction of the SIF-PC, international doctors from diverse regions now have the opportunity to apply for "limited medical practice" in Korea. This year’s cohort included four international doctors, among them a Thai doctor scheduled to train at Seoul Asan Medical Center. Joon Sup Yeom, Director of the Center for Global Development, emphasized the program’s growing significance, stating, "We aim to establish the SIF-PC as Korea’s leading pre-training program for foreign doctors."

Building Stronger Foundations in Medical Education, Research, and Nursing Training The Yonsei Institute for Global Health is driving initiatives to strengthen medical and nursing education and research capabilities at Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute in Uzbekistan. Spearheaded by the Global Medical Education Development Working Group, this project, launched in 2022, is part of a $5 million education and research capacity-building initiative funded by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA). Advancing Medical Education Through Curriculum Reform On December 5, a Medical Education Curriculum Reform Workshop took place at Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute, drawing 50 participants, including Prof. Shin-Ki An, head of the Global Medical Education Development Working Group, and Dr. Beom-Jin Lim, a pathology professor. The workshop focused on creating practical lesson plans and enhancing teaching and assessment methods. Participants engaged in hands-on exercises, drafting lesson plans aligned with modern educational principles. Building on this foundation, the institute plans to roll out student-centered course modules and self-directed learning materials by 2027. One participant expressed optimism, saying, “I hope to implement the absolute grading system used at Yonsei University College of Medicine to boost student performance.” Empowering Research Capabilities with a Dedicated Support Office In April, the institute launched its Research Support Office with a workshop attended by the institute's leadership, faculty, students, and representatives from the KOICA Uzbekistan Office. Keynote lectures by Prof. In-Hong Choi, Dr. Yoon-Ho Noh, and Research Administrative Manager Sang-Heon Cha provided insights on establishing an efficient and professional research infrastructure. Dr. Daminov Botir Turgunpulatovich, President of Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute, shared his vision: “This initiative marks a significant step forward for our research capabilities. We’re eager to continue collaborating with KOICA and Yonsei University.” Strengthening Nursing Education and Training From November 20 to 22, the International Nursing Education Center at Yonsei University College of Nursing hosted capacity-building workshops for nursing faculty and clinical nursing leaders in Uzbekistan. With 27 participants from five clinical practicum institutions, the sessions were led by Prof. Sang-Hee Kim, Nurse Team Leader Jung-Yeon Kim from Severance Children’s Hospital, and Administrative Nursing Education Team Leader Tae-Hee Kim from Yongin Severance Hospital. Day 1: Explored clinical practicum models and industry-academia collaboration strategies. Day 2: Covered practical clinical teaching methods, including the roles of preceptors. Day 3: Focused on enhancing faculty research skills and curriculum development. As Uzbekistan transitions to a four-year bachelor’s degree program in nursing under a presidential decree, these workshops aim to improve clinical practicum quality and strengthen educators' competencies. A Collaborative Path Forward The Yonsei Institute for Global Health remains committed to supporting Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute through 2027 with advanced workshops and continuous collaboration. These efforts are set to make a lasting impact on medical and nursing education, fostering a more resilient and capable healthcare workforce in Uzbekistan.
