<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"SimplonBP-Light",sans-serif">Since in many high income countries of the European region and beyond there is a lack of decent employment and trained workforce, international recruitment appears to be the answer for countries
that can offer a relatively higher salary. This phenomenon adds to the uneven distribution of health workforce, both in the European region and globally, following economic imbalances.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"SimplonBP-Light",sans-serif">Twelve years ago, in 2010, the WHO Global Code of Practice on the International Recruitment of Health Personnel was negotiated and adopted, with the purpose to mitigate these negative effects
and hold actively recruiting countries to account. In the following years, rich countries like Germany have expanded their recruitment strategies to mitigate a growing lack of health workforce, while several countries, such as Nigeria and Ghana, struggle with
doctors and nurses leaving their health systems.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
