DoH’s the Race Equality Action 2004. But research suggests that intercultural training lacks coherence in UK medical schools, and the situation of international students is also a source of concern.<o:p></o:p></font></font></p>

<p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"><font face="Times New Roman">- what kinds of contribution to intercultural competence development derive from which settings, taking into account the full range of formal and informal contexts
in which medical students participate?<o:p></o:p></font></font></p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font size="3"><font face="Times New Roman">- how far and in what ways are the intercultural learning needs of home and international students complementary or divergent?<o:p></o:p></font></font></p>
