PUBH 618 - Health Equity and Social Justice

Credits: 3

This course is focused on increasing student understanding of societal efforts to address and eliminate inequalities in health status and outcomes. The larger concept of acknowledging marginalization of populations based on race, ethnicity, class, gender and other factors; and considering equitable distribution of social, economic, political resources/opportunities as a method of eliminating inequities, addressing social determinants, and achieving health equity frames the discussion.
