Course Information

Public health is the convergence of science, policy, politics, ethics, and activism. From a social justice perspective, public health can be better enacted through the examination and remediation of injustice and inequality. Therefore, this course will involve both intra-reflective and inter-reflective examination of the social and structural inequalities and injustices within our society, locally and globally, and how they impact approaches to promote public health, with a specific emphasis for minoritized populations. The role of a human rights perspective in producing public health and how human rights cut across law, ethics, policies, and advocacy in public health is examined. The role of a human rights perspective will also be addressed as an important part of international health practice.
