This Knowledge Guide accompanies the Refugee and Migrant Health: Global Competency Standards for Health Workers (the Standards) and the Curriculum Guide to support the operationalization of the Standards. The Guide provides guidance on how health workers can apply the Standards to their own practice. For each of the nine competencies and their specific behaviours in the Standards, the Guide examines in detail how a health worker's knowledge, skills and attitudes can reach the stated benchmark for providing people-centred health services to refugees and migrants. The Guide also details the learning outcomes that reflect the behaviours that a health worker will demonstrate once they have achieved the Competency Standards. The Knowledge Guide is designed for educators and health workers to assist in designing or integrating learning content to enable attainment of the identified knowledge, skills and attitudes. The Guide can be tailored to the environments that health workers operate in, taking into consideration the requirements and constraints of local health systems as well as the characteristics of the refugee and migrant populations.
