This intensive cross-disciplinary global health and nutrition course will highlight lessons learned from community based research on high priority health problems spanning child survival; malnutrition and its behavioral determinants; infectious, vector born and emerging zoonotic diseases; reproductive and sexual health; lifestyle related disease; chronic disease and aging; health care seeking behavior in pluralistic health care arenas; and primary health care interventions. The course places an emphasis on understanding health and health care challenges in the social, cultural and political economic contexts of developing countries. Students will gain critical problem solving skills that will enable them to conduct formative research in their own countries toward the end of developing viable health care and nutrition programs.
