Description

This intensive course seeks to analyse the interface of three important global topics: Health, Development and Human Rights. Included within this analysis will be the present status of international human rights and international humanitarian law as they apply to public health practice in relation to developing countries. The course seeks to engage students, scholars, human rights practitioners, health professionals, advocates, development professionals and members of civil society in a dialogue about the reciprocal interaction between health, human development and human rights, as well as present tools stakeholders can use to incorporate a health, development and human rights framework into their work.

NOTE: this course is for students enrolled in postgraduate coursework programs in the Faculty of Medicine.
