课程简介

课程名称:健康系统发展:健康系统、政策与研究 课程概述:本专业化课程旨在吸引对健康系统及其运作感兴趣的人士。参与者将学习全球健康系统的概况,以及实现更好健康结果的挑战与机遇。本专业化课程分为三个部分,作为大规模在线开放课程(课程1-3)提供,第四门课程则作为在线公共卫生硕士学位的一部分(顶点课程)。该专业化课程适合对健康系统没有先前了解的学习者,或那些希望开始探索该研究领域的人。整体课程跨度为16周,每周大约需要96小时的学习材料观看时间。课程中还融入了形成性评估,如测验和活动,以帮助学习者评估自己的理解深度,并为总结性评估做准备。 参与者将有机会探索健康系统的多个领域。第一门课程将介绍健康系统的主要组成部分,并揭示良好运作健康系统的关键要素,包括如何评估健康系统的绩效。第二门课程将教授如何进行健康影响评估,评估政策、计划和项目的影响,帮助决策者选择预防疾病或伤害的替代方案和改善措施,积极促进健康。第三门课程将探讨人力资源与服务交付。在这门课程中,学生将学习并分析不同国家在转变健康服务交付和应对人力资源挑战方面的经验。 通过本专业化课程,学习者能够识别并批判性比较不同健康系统的关键组成部分;分析国家在转变服务中的经验;并应用理论框架评估政策、计划和项目的健康影响。 课程大纲: - 健康影响评估:您将学习健康影响评估的含义,如何评估政策、计划和项目的健康影响,以及这如何帮助决策者在预防疾病或伤害、积极促进健康方面做出选择。 - 健康影响评估练习:您将反思早期所学,尤其是公共卫生专家进行健康影响评估时所面临的支持因素和障碍,同时应用评估政策、计划和项目健康影响的理论框架,基于提供的数据设计健康影响评估。 - 健康系统政策与研究:您将关注健康系统如何应对不断变化的健康环境以及健康政策和系统研究在解决这些问题中的作用。 - 健康政策与系统研究在全球健康中的角色:您将讨论作为未来健康系统研究者的潜在角色,如何影响变革,以及反思作为公共卫生专家/健康系统研究者的角色和职责,健康政策与系统研究在明智决策中的相关性和重要性。

课程大纲

Name:Health Impact Assessment

Description:This week you will learn about health impact assessment, what that means in terms of assessing the health impacts of policies, plans and projects, and how that helps decision-makers make choices about alternatives and improvements to prevent disease or injury and to actively promote health.

Name:Health Impact Assessment Exercise

Description:This week you have the opportunity reflect on what you've learned earlier, particularly the enablers and barriers faced by public health specialists when conducting a health impact assessment, as you apply a theoretical framework for assessing the health impacts of policies, plans, and projects and design a health impact assessment based on provided data.

Name:What is health systems policy and research?

Description:This week you will focus on how health systems can, and need to be, be resilient to adapt to the changing health landscape. Attention will be on the role of health policy and systems research to tackle these issues.

Name:The role of health policy and systems research in global health

Description:This week the focus will be on your potential perspective roles as future health systems researchers and how you can influence change. You will have the opportunity to discuss the relevance and importance of health policy and system research in informed decision making and reflect on your role and responsibility as a public health specialist/ health systems researcher.

This specialization is intended for people interested in health systems and how they function. Participants will learn about the global health systems landscape and the challenges and opportunities to achieve better health outcomes. This specialisation is divided into three courses which are offered as massive online open access courses (Courses 1-3), and a fourth course which is offered as part of the Online MPH degree (capstone). The Health Systems Development specialisation is geared toward learners who have no prior knowledge of health systems or those who are starting to explore this area of study. Overall, sessions in this specialisation span 16 week with approximately 96 hours of viewing learning materials per week. Formative assessments in the form of quizzes and activities are incorporated throughout the weeks to help learners gauge their level of depth of understanding and to prepare them for their summative assessments. Participants will have the opportunity to explore a range of areas within health systems. The first course will introduce the main building blocks of health systems and shed some light on key components of well-functioning health systems including how health system performance is assessed. In course two, students will learn how to conduct a health impact assessment and how to assess the impacts of policies, plans and projects, as well as how that support decision-makers make choices regarding alternatives and improvements to prevent disease or injury and to actively promote health. The third course explores human resources for health and service delivery. In this course, students will learn about and analyse country experiences in transforming health services delivery, and interventions and to address human resources for health challenges at a global level. By the end of this specialisation, learners should be able to identify key components of, and critically compare, different health systems; analyse country experiences in transforming services; and apply theoretical framework for assessing the health impacts of policies, plans and projects.
