CHHS 230 - Social Justice and Global Health
Introduces students to the social epidemiology of health. Even in the wealthiest countries people who are less well off experience shorter life spans and more illness. We will explore the social justice and human rights aspects of attaining and maintaining health, as well as look critically at the “social determinants of health.” We will develop an understanding of the social, political and economic factors that contribute to health and develop strategies for improving the community’s health.
