Abstract
Even with great strides in the battle worldwide against several childhood diseases, the fact is that children across the globe continue to struggle with life-threatening illnesses, with more than 7 million preschool-aged children dying every year. To be effective globally, pediatric health care providers must gain knowledge and skills necessary to serve across cultural and national boundaries.
