Course Goals:This course introduces global health by putting its contemporary definition, determinants, development and direction as a field into a broad global context. It is open to students from all disciplines. The class is divided into four core topics: i) the burden and distribution of disease and mortality; ii) the determinants of global health disparities; iii) the development of global health policies; and, iv) the outcomes of global health interventions. All are examined in relation to wider patterns of global interdependency, highlighting how both global health disparities and global health policy responses are themselves shaped by global ties and tensions.
1. We describe the global burden of disease and mortality in multiple dimensions – by geography, social class, race, and gender – and examine patterns of health and welfare disparity among all of these dimensions. Disparities in both acute and chronic disease patterns over time are also addressed, exploring the associated role of global social, political, and economic changes.
2. We examine the social, political and economic determinants of health disparities. Particular attention is paid in this respect to the ways in which global interdependencies that do not appear immediately related to health – the ties of global trade, of global finance, and of global governance – nevertheless play a role in explaining unequal experiences of sickness and health.
3. We explore ways in which different concepts of globalization shape distinct approaches to policy. We trace how health policy takes different forms in changing political-economic environments including discussions of primary health care systems (e.g. inadequate investment, health workforce migration management); disease specific policies (e.g., child survival, AIDS treatment); and economic policies (e.g. World Bank & IMF Structural Adjustment Programs, pharmaceutical patent protections). The course focuses on the most important and consequential of these with a view to helping students better understand the terrain of global governance in which any new global health policy is necessarily developed.
4. The fourth part of the class examines the outcomes resulting from the ways in which new global health policies change patterns of health practice and intervention globally. In this way we circle back to the basic question of definition, thereby evaluating the degree to which policy responses to global health disparities are taking global health further away from the fields of tropical medicine, international health and national public health from which it first developed.PLEASE NOTE: THIS CLASS IS A 5 CREDIT CLASS AND COUNTS FOR A WRITING (W) CREDIT AS WELL AS ONE OF THE CORE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE GLOBAL HEALTH MINOR.

c) Research work Global Fund Project Page for all the materials on one page
The research work and section participation will contribute 40% towards your final grade.Your major research project for Global Health 101 will be to write a modified Global Fund proposal.
The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria “was created to dramatically increase resources to fight three of the world's most devastating diseases, and to direct those resources to areas of greatest need.” By following key components of this disease specific policy development process, you will learn about the wider mechanics effecting funding for Global Health while also developing knowledge about heath needs and systems in a poor country setting. Over the quarter you will complete a series of seven assignments that will culminate with a modified proposal for submission to the Global Fund at the end of the quarter. Each assignment will contribute to the final product and allow for consistent progress on your proposal throughout the quarter.
