Cost: Audit for free
Format: Self-paced (3–5 hours per week, 4 weeks)
Though we are in the midst of a current pandemic, understanding and learning from the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa can allow us to prevent the next global health catastrophe, forge partnerships across borders and disciplines, and demonstrate our commitment to value all human lives. What was the global response supposed to look like, and where did it fail? Ashish Jha, MD ’97 (Class of 1996), MPH ’04, former director of the Harvard Global Health Institute and dean of Brown University School of Public Health, leads this course.
