鈥淚 liked the course format, with a presentation on a topic, starting from the foundations to more complex elements. I particularly liked the fact that the presentations were thought of as a coherent and structured whole and made sense in the progression of the week. It was obvious that the course had been designed and prepared thoughtfully.鈥�

CONTENT

Over the past 20 years we have seen that having a strong health system is critical to realizing the improvements needed in health and health equity throughout the world. The sustainable development goals (SDGs) have also caused us to reflect on the positioning of health and health care within an intersectoral and intersectional vision of progress toward improved health and well-being. Now, more than ever, we see the impact of the global COVID pandemic not just in terms of health, but the impact, interaction and competing priorities of the related economic turn, governance, human resources, poverty, housing, gender and education which are creating, and will continue to create, significant inequities globally. Understanding and being able to incorporate a 鈥渓ens鈥� that examines and critically appraises a systems for health approach is essential for those working in the health and social policy domains, or in other policy domains, research or academia to support the move forward to better health and well-being of those who live and should flourish on this planet.

This course builds the participant鈥檚 ability to understand health systems. The course utilizes problem-based learning, case studies, comparative analysis, and practice exercises to engage learners in following topics:

1. Introduction to health systems and unpacking perspectives
2. Burden of disease and context of equity
3. Equity, gender and global health challenges
4. Sustainable and responsive human resources for health leadership
5. Global governance and COVID-19
6. Healthcare financing from a global perspective
7. Health systems perspective on infectious diseases in developing countries and resource poor settings

OBJECTIVES

• Understand and apply a health systems framework in a global health context
• Understand integrative and interdisciplinary approaches to service delivery, programs/interventions and policy development
• Understand approaches for assessing progress in improving global health
• Understand key concepts of equity, gender and human rights and the interrelationships with vulnerable populations
• Understand the principles and opportunities for global health research

TARGET AUDIENCE

This course is intended for health practitioners in a global context, researchers, and policy/decision makers to be able to integrate a systems for health and equity lens into their everyday work and activities. It is not critical for participants to come from a public health/healthcare background, but it does provide a foundational base to understanding some of the issues taught in the course.

ENROLMENT

Limited to 100 online participants.
