Evidence-Based Program Design for Reproductive Health

SPH IH 881

This course focuses on the evidence underpinning strategies to address major reproductive health RH) problems among adults in developing countries. For each RH problem, we will consider the key factors contributing to possible solutions – e.g., biological, social, epidemiological, health system, political and technological factors. Topics will include: maternal mortality, cervical cancer, family planning, abortion, HIV/AIDS, and infertility. Students will chose a specific topic and evaluate the evidence base, and write a 15-page program recommendation document for a ministry of health, NGO, or international agency.
