342C: Tps:Project Development and Funding for Health in Uganda

In this elective, students will explore the health challenges faced in low-income settings, using one Ugandan hospital as a focal point. Through case studies, discussions, and hands-on projects, you will examine disease prevalence, priority setting, and healthcare delivery, while also learning about the tensions that can arise between global health initiatives at the macro level and local community needs. Students will engage in practical activities, including grant proposal writing and health needs assessments, equipping them with valuable skills to contribute meaningfully to global health solutions.
