Play a crucial role in the world’s health care.  

Do you know that at least half of the world’s population does not have full coverage of essential health services? You will learn what is needed to deliver health care in resource-poor settings. Students rate this minor with an 8.1!

This minor is taught in English

As a health professional, you are challenged to contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 3 to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. In this minor, you will focus on what is needed to deliver health care in a resource-poor setting, not only to sick individuals but also to the communities of the families of the patients.

As a health worker, you can play a crucial role in primary health care, mother and child health, and health promotion. Basic knowledge of tropical diseases, as well as health resource allocation, plays hereby a vital role.

  • Admission requirements

    This minor is intended for healthcare students who plan to work or do an internship in a low- or middle-income country. Students who have an interest in global health are also welcome. It is highly recommended to follow the minor Sustainability and Practical Ethics  prior to this minor. The language in use is English.

    International students can only start at the CHE in September. The Global Health programme can, therefore, only be followed by international students in combination with another minor of 15 EC that starts in September. 

Themes

In this minor, we cover the following topics:  

  • relation between health and poverty;  
  • primary health care;  
  • child health;  
  • sexual and reproductive health  
  • tropical diseases;  
  • health promotion;  
  • health resource allocation;  
  • epidemiology;  
  • intercultural communication 

 
Learning outcome of the minor:

You design advice for health professionals in a low- or middle-income country on improving their public health practice and provide culturally sensitive health education in line with this advice in collaboration with others. You give your opinion on a global health issue and indicate your contribution towards this issue.

Indicators

  1. You have basic knowledge of diseases in low- and middle-income countries. 
  2. You design advice for health professionals in a low- or middle-income country based on a context analysis containing recommendations for public health practice, in collaboration with others.
  3. You provide health education in a simulated setting, in collaboration with others.
  4. You reflect on your approach to cultural sensitivity while giving advice and conducting health education, by using peer review. 
  5. You give your opinion on a global health issue in a low- or middle-income country by using evidence-based resources, making ethical considerations, and using peer review.
  6. You indicate how you could personally contribute towards a global health issue.

Programme and assessment

Every theme is introduced by an inspiring lecture. From there you immerse yourself in the theme via online learning units. All gathered knowledge and skills come together during a subsequent workshop. Two weekly you have coaching sessions on intercultural sensitivity. An excursion and a full-day serious game on health resource allocation are also part of the programme.  

The final assessment of the minor consists of the submission of a portfolio (individual) and an advice report (as a group). This is combined with a presentation of the advice report (as a group) and a presentation on your opinion on a global health issue and your contribution towards it. The assessment equals 15 EC.
