Global health and humanitarianism
The course, one of the best online humanitarian courses, will provide you with a theoretical and practical overview of global health and humanitarianism. In many ways, these fields intersect and are intertwined. However, to explore subjects, the course has used three key themes: each key theme will be discussed over two-week blocks by specialist course lecturers, with three keynote speakers who are leading experts in the field providing unique video perspectives.
To get the best out of the course you are encouraged to try and set aside a few hours each week. This will give you more time to go over videos, written materials, and linked resources, as well as participate in discussions with other students. Based on the course content, the instructors have suggested a variety of readings, resources, and activities. Some will be necessary for your understanding of the MOOC themes as well as your assessment (if you have chosen to take part in assessment activity). Others will be for those of you who want to learn more about a specific topic or viewpoint, or conduct your own research into global health and humanitarianism in action.
During the course, the instructors will look at a range of different opinions and debates, linked to key themes and addressing ethics and moral issues. They hope you will be inspired and encouraged to explore and share your own perspectives, and those of others, throughout the course. Different viewpoints are essential to understanding global health and humanitarian practice.
