Topic

The contributions of global health workforce to organizational, community health, national and global health outcomes have been advocated, especially for building resilient and sustainable systems as conceptualized by the SDGS2030 in the global context. On the other hand the overall shortages of workforces has been constantly a subject of concern putting pressure on the systems and undermining the mental and physical health of health workers by large. This module attempts to prepare students for understanding the key drivers of these challenges and equip them with advanced models for approaching these challenges inorder to achieve stronger systems and healtheir workforce in the 21st century.

The module takes a project-based learning approach and cites case incidences inorder to allow students(i.e. M.Britnell „Human: Solving the global workforce crisis in healthcare”) to learn from other practices and apply their knowledge around a chosen topic of their interest. The exam will be be designed in manner that would allow the students to prove the said capacities
