In response to a request made by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, a study was commissioned by the WHO-SEARO to evaluate the WHO fellowship program in India for a period of two biennium, viz., 1994-95, 1996-97. The objectives of this study were to categorize the Fellows selected for training, to assess the relevance of training received, and the extent of utilization of the training in their local setting. Methodology consisted of questionnaire survey and document analysis. Results indicated a disproportionate allotment of fellowships to various health professionals, and problems in the implementation of the knowledge, skills learnt in their local situation. Suggestions have been given for strengthening the fellowship program.
