Exploring perspectives on health professions education scholarship units from sub-Saharan Africa

DiscussionThe similarities identified in this study may reflect isomorphism —a process which sees institutions within a similar field becoming more alike, particularly as newer institutions seek to acquire legitimacy within that field. An important caveat, however, is that isomorphism tends to occur across similar institutional contexts, which was not the case in this s tudy. Understanding these differences is key as these HPESUs move to foster scholarship that can respond to the region’s unique context.
