Foreign Policy, Trade and Health

Health policy has undergone profound changes during the last few decades. Although health has for a long time been an issue in international relations, it was for most of the 20th century perceived as a national and technical matter. This meant that solutions to health problems were seen to require primarily scientific and technological collaboration rather than political commitment. Along with the dramatic changes associated with globalisation, health is increasingly seen as a higher priority on international political agendas.

Principales reseñas sobre GLOBAL HEALTH: AN INTERDISCIPLINARY OVERVIEW

por NB12 de sep. de 2020

Very enlightening , and amazing to see the competences and dedication of every professional involved in this course. Chapeau, et merci!

por HM12 de nov. de 2019

Good content but an update is necessary (SDG and not MDG anymore for exemple). The questions were sometimes hard to understand. But I'm overall very happy about this course.

por SF19 de feb. de 2016

This course not only takes the time to explain the topics clearly and concisely they also take the time to explain the simple things like the roots of the words.

por SH9 de oct. de 2019

A very complete and solid review of basic global health concepts. The data need to be updated as most of them are for 2013 and MDGs. Overall a well made course.
