This means incorporating “glocalization” into solution centric approaches and creative leadership.

Completing this course marks the level of students’ efforts and signifies a significant step forward in their journey towards understanding public health. Throughout this project, students will engage with a diverse range of topics, methodologies, and real-world applications, equipping them with essential knowledge, skills, and perspectives to navigate the multifaceted landscape of public health.

Moreover, the lessons learned from this course project will serve as a solid foundation for students as they continue their academic and professional endeavors in the field of public health. Whether pursuing further studies, embarking on careers in public health practice, or advocating for policy change, students are well-equipped to make meaningful contributions to improving the health and well-being of communities locally, nationally, and globally.
