Research Concepts and Methods

The massive impact of the ongoing Corona crisis underlines the importance of Global Health. There is an urgent need to develop evidence-based policies that protect health, economical and social situations of even the most vulnerable populations. In this CAS you can learn how to measure and analyse health, disease, risk factors, economic issues, health services, and social phenomenon. The programme trains professionals in epidemiology, statistics, qualitative research methods, and teach them the key concepts of Global Urban health, health governance and health systems. This CAS also includes an exciting excursion to Geneva where we visit leading international health organisations like the World Health Organisation (WHO) and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
