课程名称：全球健康政策 课程概述：本课程旨在让学习者熟悉全球健康问题的原则和理论，以及在改善全球人口健康方面面临的主要挑战与争议，并通过定量方法的实际应用来分析和解读政策相关的议题与挑战。课程主题涵盖健康与外交政策、健康治理、急性疾病监测、非传染性疾病、疾病负担、全民健康覆盖、健康系统强化、健康融资以及人力资源与老龄化。 课程大纲： 1. **全球健康政策与治理**：该模块探讨当前全球健康政策与治理中的关键问题，特别是2015年的各种全球性挑战，如疾病疫情、恐怖主义、难民和移民危机及气候变化等对人们安全的影响。通过分析西非的埃博拉疫情暴露出来的全球功能的薄弱之处，提出对日本在G7伊势志摩峰会的全球健康行动建议。 2. **流行病与健康安全应对**：本模块将探讨 universal health coverage（UHC）、灾难和流行病之间的关系，学习如何测量和理解传染病的传播以及如何有效应对。同时，讨论确保对传染病紧急情况和灾害进行及时有效响应所需的条件，以及全民健康覆盖在应对这些突发人道危机中的共同作用。 3. **在老龄化背景下的全民健康覆盖**：第三模块介绍全民健康覆盖的基本概念、健康融资的技术方面以及改进全民健康覆盖系统的方法。讨论老龄化和发展对全民健康覆盖所带来的挑战，尤其是在发展中国家。同时探索全球范围内改善和加强全民健康覆盖系统的新政策解决方案。 4. **日本健康系统的未来：以低成本维持良好的健康公平**：该模块探讨实现全民健康覆盖的核心主题，强调健康应急准备与响应的重要性。日本在1961年实现了全民健康覆盖，并在相对快速的经济发展背景下取得了良好的健康效果，但如今正面临巨大的人口与财政挑战。我们将回顾日本健康系统发展的历史背景，分析其可持续性面临的当前挑战，并研究健康系统改革的持续努力，分享日本在全球健康政策与治理中的经验教训。 该课程为希望深入理解全球健康政策和公共卫生的学习者提供了全面的视角和实用的知识。
Name:Global Health Policy and Governance
Description:There are four modules in this lecture series. We will start with key issues in current global health policy and governance. The year 2015 reminded political leaders and the public that people’s safety is a genuine challenge at a time of disease epidemics, terrorism, refugee and migration crises, and climate change among others. The recent Ebola virus outbreaks in west Africa exposed weaknesses in core global functions, such as the provision of global public goods, management of cross-boarder externalities and fostering of leadership and stewardship. This module describes major challenges and issues in global health policy and proposes actions in global health, in particular for Japan at the G7 Ise-Shima Summit.
Name:Pandemics and Health Security Responses
Description:In this module, we will explore the relationship between universal health coverage, disasters and pandemics. We will learn how to measure and understand the spread of infectious diseases, and how to respond to them. We will also consider the conditions necessary to ensure an effective and timely response to both infectious disease emergencies and disasters, and identify the common role that universal health coverage plays in preparing societies for these unexpected threats to human well-being.
Name:Universal Health Coverage in the Context of Aging
Description:In Module 3, we will introduce the basic concept of universal health coverage (UHC), some technical aspects of health financing, and methods for measuring and improving UHC systems. We will also discuss the challenges to UHC posed by aging and development, including for developing countries. Finally, we will explore policy solutions to aging, and look at new policies being used around the world to improve and strengthen UHC systems.
Name:The Future of Japan's Health System: Sustaining Good Health with Equity at Low Cost
Description:One of the central themes in today’s global health policy is the achievement of universal health coverage (UHC). The recent Ebola crisis has indicated that not only responses, but preparedness is key to tackling health emergencies. There is a growing consensus that a set of low-cost, smart investments at country level has the potential to make a significant difference in building resilient health systems. Japan achieved UHC in 1961 at a time of rapid economic development, while the country was still relatively poor. Japan has achieved some of the best population health outcomes at relatively low cost with equity over half a century. However, Japan is facing a huge demographic and fiscal challenge to sustain its health system. In this module, we will review the historical context for Japan’s health system development, examine current challenges to its sustainability, and examine ongoing efforts to reform the system. The major objective is to share important lessons in current debates on global health policy and governance from Japan’s experiences.
In this course, learners will become familiar with principles and theories of global health problems, and major challenges and controversies in improving global population health as well as practical applications of quantitative methods to analyze and interpret issues and challenges for policy. Topics will include health and foreign policy, health governance, acute disease surveillance, non-communicable diseases, burden of disease, universal health coverage, health systems strengthening, health financing, and human resources for health and ageing.
