Module description

This intensive module will introduce you to the key frameworks and tools leaders use to understand and develop solutions to public health problems. Blending classic public health tools such as ecological and life-course perspectives with modern complex systems thinking and learning from management and strategy, this module will include both didactic components and ‘laboratory’ sessions in which you will develop a conceptual framework for action on a specific public health problem. Assessment will be by 2,000-word essay, in which you will write up a conceptual framework using relevant tools.
