Global Health
Public health, by definition, brings together multiple stakeholders, health professionals, policy organisations, government as well as the public. The CC aims to engage with these multiple audiences and develop new learning opportunities, research and evidence-based policy.
The community is led by a group of international experts who are working together on a broad range of topics related to inequalities, public health nutrition, policy development, digital learning and health, amongst others.
The community intends to create a virtual placement scheme and, more broadly, develop a portfolio for student connectedness beyond the traditional designs.
Watch this space for more information on 2024-25 activities and ways to engage.
