Abstract
Integration of Interprofessional Education (IPE) into the health sciences curriculum has been recommended over the past several decades to prepare healthcare professionals for future collaborative practice. However, due to the disparity in the adoption of IPE, this literature review attempted to examine the development of IPE and its implementation in global and Indian contexts. IPE has evolved from being fragmented and isolated initiatives to entering into the mainstream of professional education. In terms of IPE implementation, the global scan revealed that IPE was implemented in several countries to varying degrees; however, developing countries lagged behind developed countries in implementing and sustaining IPE. Scarce evidence was found regarding the implementation of IPE in India. The literature review elaborates on the transformation of health professions education from the traditional system to IPE and discusses the gap in the adoption and implementation of IPE in developing countries, including India.
