International Health and Development

This module encourages students to develop knowledge and competence in the area of health improvement. The module will focus on the use of health improvement approaches: health promotion, prevention and community development to influence health  and health seeking behaviours and  the wider socio-cultural environment of populations, communities and individuals, to improve their health and well-being and reduce inequalities. The focus of the module is to compare different approaches and consider what are the most applicable interventions in your setting.
