Beschreibung des Programms

The Core Course in Public Health and Health Equity is aimed at health professionals, such as doctors, nurses and midwives, as well as social scientists, (health) economists, and other professionals, who already work in public health in low- and middle-income settings and/or with marginalised communities and are seeking a deeper understanding through training in public health. It is also directed at professionals working mostly in health service delivery who are considering a career switch to public health.

In addition, this course would prepare you to work with refugees or disadvantaged populations in a high-income country. You may aim to work at a national or decentralised level (region, district, local authority) with the government or for healthcare programmes with (inter)national NGOs.

The Core Course in Public Health and Health Equity is organised by KIT Royal Tropical Institute in collaboration with the Vrije Universiteit Medical Centre (VU) in Amsterdam and the University Hospital of the University of Amsterdam (UvA). It is NVAO and tropEd accredited, as part of the Master in Public Health and Health Equity.

In the Netherlands, the Core Course in Public Health and Health Equity (*) forms part of a post-graduate training programme for physicians, leading to a diploma as MD Global Health and Tropical Medicine (AIGT). For more information, please visit: www.oigt.nl.

(* formerly known as NTC, Netherlands Course on Global Health and Tropical Medicine)
