Abstract
Interprofessional exchanges such as workshops are common activities in international development programs. The authors describe processes used to select, implement, and evaluate six collaborative workshops held in Tianjin, China, between 1990 and 1995. These workshops targeted curricular change for a baccalaureate nursing program in Tianjin Medical University. Our experience highlights the importance of understanding the assumptive base for change, developing an institutional memory in both partner universities, introducing interactive teaching methods congruent with Chinese value systems, and using a formative evaluation strategy to foster cross-cultural dialogue and mutual understanding among project partners.
