<p>In 2014 DFID, with the Department of Health and the National Health Service (NHS),
produced the Framework for Voluntary Engagement in Global Health to explain to health
sector organisations how they can most effectively support volunteers engaged in health
work in developing countries. As part of its support for volunteering, DFID is providing
£30 million from 2011 to 2017 for the Health Partnerships Scheme which uses the skills
of UK health professionals to train, mentor and coach their developing country counterparts
in their home countries. DFID also provides support to the non-governmental organisations
VSO and UK-Med which facilitate skilled health professionals volunteering overseas.</p>
