Liebe Global Health-Interessierte,
ihr studiert an einer Universität, an der es noch kein Lehrangebot zu Global Health
gibt? Ihr spielt mit dem Gedanken, das zu ändern, wisst aber nicht genau, wie? Ihr
wollt selbst ein Wahlfach gestalten und durchführen?
An den Universitäten Leipzig und Hann...over haben Studierende 2018 und 2019
bereits erfolgreich Wahlfächer zu Global Health ins Leben gerufen. Basierend auf
ihren Erfahrungen soll euch das folgende Kompendium eine Hilfestellung für die
Etablierung eines eigenen Wahlfaches an eurer Universität bieten. In 11 steps zum
Wahlfachkönnt ihr nachvollziehen, welche bürokratischen Schritte gegangen und
welche inhaltlichen sowie organisatorischen Fragen geklärt werden müssen.
Außerdem findet ihr einen Leitfaden zur Vorbereitung einer Unterrichtsstunde,
sowie einen Stundenverlaufsplan für die Eigenverwendung und am Ende eine
Auflistung möglicher Qüllen und Ansprechpartner.
Wir hoffen, dass Global Health bald an vielen weiteren Unis in der Lehre präsent
sein wird und freuen uns, durch diesen Beitrag hierfür Unterstützung bieten zu
können. Für Fragen und Anmerkungen stehen wir euch jederzeit gerne zur
Verfügung!

Faciliter l’accès aux soins de santé primaires et assurer une couverture sanitaire universelle à la population reste un défi de grande taille pour les pays en voie de développement. En effet malgré quelques efforts consentis ces dernières décennies, le problème d’accessibilité aux so...ins de santé est loin d’être résolu. Outre le problème épineux des ressources humaines s’ajoutent des difficultés liées à l’organisation et au fonctionnement des systèmes de santé, au financement des systèmes de santé, à la prestations de soins de qualité et à l’accès aux médicaments de base. Tous ceci ayant un impact désastreux sur la population notamment les plus pauvres qui n’arrivent plus à bénéficier de soins de qualité permettant d’obtenir une santé optimale.
