Course Information

Description

This course explores key topic areas related to maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) in low- and middle-income settings, where the greatest burden of mortality and morbidity is concentrated. We follow a life-course approach and provide a lens into policy, research, and program areas of global MNCH. The sessions are a mix of core global health life-course topics and special topics exploring controversies or current issues in MNCH in resource-limited settings.

Students will gain insights into the key opportunities, challenges, and priorities in global MNCH from leading experts and expand their practical toolkits through the course assignments.
