SUMMARY:Health Systems in Conflict Affected Areas
DESCRIPTION:Research shows health systems and institutions often struggle to maintain functioning during periods of acute stress and suffer inadequate support for years to decades after the conclusion of a crisis. Join us as we consider new approaches to support health systems in these contexts.

SUMMARY:Global Access in Action: Conversations in Global Health\, Innovation\, & the Digital World
DESCRIPTION:Featuring HLS Professor William Fisher \nMonday\, June 12\, 2016 at 12:00 pm\nHarvard Global Health Institute\n42 Church Street\, Cambridge MA\nConference Room \nRSVP required to attend in person\nJoin the live webcast here on June 12 at 12pm (please mute your microphone) \nGlobal Access in Action: Conversations in Global Health\, Innovation\, & the Digital World \nThis event is being sponsored by the Harvard Global Health Institute and the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University. \nRecent advances in several unrelated fields — miniature mass spectrometry; artificial intelligence; and drug databases – may soon radically increase the ability of public-health workers to assess the chemical composition of pharmaceutical products rapidly\, cheaply\, and “in the field.” This potential\, in turn\, offers a variety of ways in which vaccines and medicines could be distributed more efficiently to poor patients in developing countries. \nWilliam Fisher\, Harvard Law School Professor of Intellectual Property Law and Faculty Director\, Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society\, will discuss these possibilities and a pilot project in Namibia designed to test them.

SUMMARY:BWH Harvard CME course: Understanding Global Healthcare Delivery
DESCRIPTION:BWH Harvard CME course: Understanding Global Healthcare Delivery June 9-10\, 2017 \nThe Brigham and Women’s Hospital Division of Global Health Equity is offering for a CME course in Global Healthcare Delivery on June 9-10\, 2017. CME credit will be granted through Harvard Medical School. \nWe are extremely enthusiastic about the content of the course which will bring together expert Global Health faculty from Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Content will be taught by Paul Farmer\, MD\, PhD\, Joe Rhatigan\, MD\, Joia Mukherjee\, MD\, MPH\, Daniel Palazuelos\, MD\, MPH and Michelle Morse\, MD\, MPH and others. \nThe program is designed to give practicing clinicians an introduction to best practices in the provision of health services in low-resource settings globally. The course will discuss the biosocial determinants of health and disease and explore how programs that deliver healthcare in low-resource settings address these factors to improve the health of the communities they serve. \nTopics covered in the program will include: the global burden of disease\, HIV prevention and treatment\, global tuberculosis control\, non-communicable disease prevention and treatment\, the role of community health workers in health service delivery\, global health policy and human resource capacity building. The course will be taught through lectures and interactive case discussions that seek to provide participants with a rich understanding of the complexities of health care delivery in low-resource settings. \nThe program will include two days of course work and case discussions as well as a “meet the faculty” reception.

SUMMARY:Humanitarian Response Intensive Course
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe Humanitarian Response Intensive Course is offered each year to professionals from around the world at Harvard University. Through presentations and hands on table top exercises offered by faculty and guest lecturers who are experts in their topic areas\, participants will gain familiarity with the primary frameworks in the humanitarian field (human rights\, livelihoods\, Sphere standards\, international humanitarian law) and will focus on practical issues that arise in the field\, such as personal and team security\, rapid assessments\, application of minimum standards for food security\, shelter\, WaSH (water\, sanitation and hygiene) and operational approaches to relations with the military in humanitarian settings. Throughout the class\, students will participate in pre-assigned learning teams to complete in-class projects designed to compliment a humanitarian case study. At the conclusion of class\, student teams will present an aid delivery proposal designed to meet the needs of the population portrayed in the humanitarian case study. \nClasses will be held in English. To successfully participate in the course\, we recommend that participants have at least a B2 English language level (CEFR). \nSimulation\nParticipants will utilize knowledge of the humanitarian field gained in the classroom learning sessions during a three-day field simulation exercise. Attendees will spend two nights in the forest and participate in a complicated disaster and conflict scenario. During the simulation\, participants will work in teams representing different humanitarian nongovernmental organizations and will engage with a wide range of local and non-state actors (roles developed and filled by faculty\, course alumni\, and affiliates) to create a service delivery plan. \nThe simulation will be held rain or shine. \nCourse Fees\nStandard Registration Fee: $2600 USD ($2450 Early Registration rate available until October 31\, 2016) \nMedical Resident / Student Discounted Registration Fee: $2400 USD ($2250 Early Registration rate available until October 31\, 2016)

SUMMARY:2017 CUGH Satellite: Putting quality on the global health agenda
DESCRIPTION:This symposium will provide a lecture followed by a panel discussion to explore the need to increase access to healthcare and simultaneously ensure that the care provided is of sufficiently high quality (i.e. care that is safe\, effective\, patient centered\, timely\, efficient\, and equitable). Healthcare systems need to think beyond access and coverage of healthcare services\, and start measuring and systematically improving quality of healthcare in LMICs. This session of leading international experts will discuss and debate the best approaches to measurement of health care quality; examples of quality improvement programs that have worked or failed\, and lessons from such case studies; quality of care in private versus public sectors; use of quality dashboards\, audits and tools\, and their likely impact on quality; and understanding an overcoming the persuasive know-do gap (i.e. gap between what healthcare providers know and what they actually do in practice). Speakers will also reflect on why quality health care is critical for reaching global health goals\, and why focusing on healthcare availability and utilization may not delivery the SDGs.

SUMMARY:Global Health Graduate Student Research Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Presentation Description: Chelsea will present the preliminary findings of a research project that she conducted in Malaysia as a 2015-2016 Fulbright U.S. Student Researcher. Malaysia is an equatorial country in Southeast Asia with year-round seasonal flu burden and a history of human avian influenza cases. In Malaysia\, pregnant women are not formally recommended by the Ministry of Health to receive the seasonal flu vaccine despite being one of the WHO highest-priority vaccination groups\, and antenatal healthcare providers (HCP) are not provided the vaccine through the public sector. Because HCP recommendation is an important factor in whether or not pregnant women obtain the flu vaccine\, we sought to investigate the knowledge\, attitudes\, and practices of Malaysian antenatal HCP regarding seasonal flu vaccination and the risks of influenza during pregnancy in order to identify the impact of national vaccination recommendations as well as other factors associated with HCP vaccination and recommendation.
