This course uses a multidisciplinary approach to analyse the emergence, justificiation and success of current global health priorities including reproductive health, child health water, infectious diseases, noncommunicable disease, mental health, and public health in complex emergencies (man made and Environmental). Students will learn to examine the social, economic, and political factors contributing to the rise of these global health priorities, learn about the different suggested approaches and tools for managing them as well be involved in the development of strategies for their solution. This course builds on Introduction to Global Health" (P6811) by demonstrating the application of major concepts and principles that govern the practice of global health in resource-poor countries."
