Welcome to our course on Understanding and Strengthening Health Systems for Global Health. During the course, we will provide you with an overview of the main building blocks or components of a healthcare system based on guidance from the World Health Organization. You will have the opportunity to explore four main areas of health systems in global health with special reference to low- and middle-income countries. The first area focuses on understanding the challenges of health service organizations. Our second module looks at the six main WHO elements or components of health systems with special reference to primary health care and the need for community involvement in planning, delivery and evaluation of these systems components. . In our third module we look at the specific systems component of human resource development and capacity building. The fourth area consists of health policy formulation and advocacy with stakeholders. This course is intended for students who are already involved in managing health and development programs on the ground in low- and middle-income countries or preparing for that management role. The main lectures will span a four week period with approximately 2-4 hours of viewing learning materials per week. We have a peer graded essay where you will use skills in "organizational" diagnosis to better understand a challenge in an organization you are or have worked for. There are also quizzes. We hope that you will participate with your fellow learners in discussion forums to learn from each other.
