Introduction : Compte tenu des recommandations pertinentes de la Commission de vérité et réconciliation de 2015, cet article examine l'état actuel des processus d'admission des Autochtones dans les facultés de médecine canadiennes et explore les obstacles persistants auxquels sont confrontés les candidats autochtones.
Méthodes : Un résumé de la littérature illustrant les désavantages des outils d'admission actuels pour les candidats autochtones est présenté. Une recherche de la littérature grise a été effectuée sur les exigences d'admission actuelles, les processus d'entrevue et d'autres données pertinentes de chaque faculté de médecine. Des tableaux comparant les différences entre leurs approches sont inclus. Un calcul de l'accès des Autochtones aux places dans les facultés de médecine par rapport à l'ensemble de la population canadienne a été effectué. Les lacunes dans l'exécution sont explorées, aboutissant à un tableau de recommandations.
Résultats : Malgré les engagements officiels visant à réduire les obstacles, les candidats autochtones qui appliquent aux facultés de médecine canadiennes se heurtent encore à des obstacles auxquels les candidats non autochtones ne sont pas confrontés. La plupart des programmes utilisent des outils d'admission connus pour désavantager les candidats autochtones. Les candidats autochtones n'ont pas un accès équitable aux places dans les facultés de médecine. Des processus d’accès facilités pour les autochtones permettent d'abord de s'assurer que les candidats autochtones satisfont à toutes les exigences minimales des étudiants canadiens, puis nécessitent d'autres travaux.
Discussion : Sept ans après que la Commission de vérité et réconciliation ait demandé aux universités et aux gouvernements canadiens de former davantage de prestataires de soins en santé autochtone, les progrès réalisés pour réduire les désavantages structurels auxquels les étudiants autochtones sont confrontés lorsqu'ils posent leur candidature à une faculté de médecine sont limités. Sur la base des meilleures pratiques observées au Canada et de la littérature autochtone pertinente, des recommandations sont formulées à l'intention de multiples parties prenantes.
Conclusions : L'étude est limitée par les données disponibles sur le nombre de candidats et d'étudiants autochtones. Lorsqu'elles sont disponibles, les données ne sont pas encourageantes en ce qui concerne l'accès équitable aux études de médecine pour les populations autochtones au Canada. Ces conclusions ont été présentées lors de l’édition 2023 du Congrès international de médecine universitaire (CIMU) qui s’est déroulé en avril 2023 dans la ville de Québec, au Canada.
