Principais avaliações do OS DESAFIOS DA SAÚDE GLOBAL
This was a very detailed and well structured course. Dr. Boyd gave me a panoramic understanding of Global Health Challenges, the interdependence and complexity of these challenges and their solutions.
Very Informative. The lecturer was knowledge and genuinely interested about the topic. This course has furthered my interest in global health (previously, my focus was on community health).
Incredibly informative course, the reading material is brief and concise and the videos are super informative. The instructor is great! And has the cutest dog. 10/10 I've genuinly learned a lot.
This course opened my eyes to a lot of issues and challenges in the world of global health and it also exposed me to solutions and future recommendations to solutions. Thank you for this.
