About this course

This course will examine equal rights and opportunities, as they relate to public health crises and address the social determinants of health and equity. Students will explore the principles of social justice (access to resources, equity, participation, diversity, and human rights) as they relate to current public health crises, including global pandemics (e.g., Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) and HIV/AIDS), national epidemics (e.g., domestic violence (and intimate partner violence), mass killings by firearms, and racism, as a public health crisis).
