DESCRIPTION
COVID-19 has been described as a 'once-in-a-generation' global emergency that has reverberated all aspects of global health practice. This course is designed to increase student awareness and appreciation for the deep and emerging ways in which individual countries and the global community responded. Students will examine the impact of the virus and its management on communications, communities, and health and development systems. Comparisons between the US, Australia, Italy and China will be made to directly relate learning to students' local setting as well as contrasting responses internationally. This will be a Globally Networked Learning experience with experts drawn from Australia, Italy and China.
