GLOBAL HEALTH INITIATIVE SPRING SCHOOL DRESDEN
The Department of General Medicine of the Faculty of Medicine at TU Dresden is organising the interdisciplinary ‘Global Health Initiative Spring School’ in collaboration with the Institute of Political Science and the Chair of Public Health at TU Dresden.
Among other things, the Spring School will focus on the impact of socio-economic health determinants on the health burden, the importance of primary health care systems in reducing health disparities, the role of various international stakeholders and the impact of climate change and conflict on the health burden. The programme includes lectures and practice-oriented workshops led by international lecturers from a wide range of interdisciplinary professional groups. Participating institutions include the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), the World Health Organisation (WHO), the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), the Dresden Health Department and the local group Health For Future.
The Global Health Initiative Spring School is aimed at students from all faculties at TU Dresden and beyond. Through interprofessional and interdisciplinary learning, joint problem-solving strategies are trained. The aim is to familiarise students with fundamental concepts of global health.
Next Spring School: 24.03.-28.03.2025.
A public cinema screening will take place as part of the Spring School on Wednesday. Be there! More information here!
