Description: | On the cutting edge of global health and disability, this study abroad program offers the opportunity for you as an upper-year student to ground your study of health and disability within the expanding context of global norms. Although this program is anchored in health studies, the program is interdisciplinary in nature and you will explore different perspectives in order to broaden your scope and understanding of global health and disability studies.
Each course includes lectures, visiting scholars, and experiential learning opportunities focusing on a combination of studies in disability and policy in global health, global sport, healthcare innovation, health communication and/or mental health. The faculty is drawn from a field of experts and experienced educators passionate about their area of expertise. And unlike many courses that look individually at global health or disability studies, this program provides a direct link between the two and is a unique program in Canadian universities. |
