Teaching other than English - Brain gain

I am new here, and I've seen post after post about teaching English. All fine and good, but where are those professionals who already have a profession and who can contribute by teaching their skills that are lacking in Colombia?

It would be nice to see a knowledge going into Colombia instead of constantly leaving - the dreaded brain drain - and contribute, however small, to brain gain. For instance, I know that Colombian ophthalmologists (eye doctors) are very talented, but leave Colombia when they can.
