HLTH-260 Advancing Global Health Ethics to Achieve Health Equity: Including the Excluded (3) Global health implementation is fraught with ethical conundrums, including the process of generating rigorous evidence, championing health as a human right, engaging global partners in meaningful collaborations, and implementing complex programs in low-resource settings. These ethical challenges are driven by North-South inequities and by differences in socioeconomic backgrounds, culture, language, and other intersectional identities. This course guides global health scientists, policymakers, and practitioners in developing a global health ethical framework for tackling health disparities, grappling in a scholarly and practical way with the complex fabric of global health research, policy, and practice.
