Health Law Gov: Global-Local

3 Credits · Level: Undergraduate

This course aims to demonstrate the importance of using law (statutory, regulatory, and, where applicable, judge-made), informed by sound technical skills in science, technology, and medicine, to advance objectives relevant for both health, domestic policy, and international relations. Further, it seeks to contextualize how and where law fits in the broader framework for global and domestic health governance. We will examine the wide range of public, private, and civil society players, institutions, and organizations that are involved in shaping, directing, and influencing global health programs, policies, and outcomes.
