This course will emphasize the concepts of global health, with the expectation of providing a framework of analyzing health (and wellbeing) inequity, both among and within countries. It would NOT address specific diseases or health care systems.
The goal of this course is to facilitate the understanding of several key questions in the health and living conditions of people in the globalized world. These include: 1. How to define “development”? Why are some countries “developed” while others “underdeveloped”? What are the critical factors? 2. How to understand “globalization”? How does it impact on public health? How does it impact on the underlying institutional factors of public health? 3. Who are the major players in global health governance? 4. What is “right to health”? How to incorporate human rights as a component in global health governance?
