Description
The Global Health Histories project was established in late 2004. Its mission is based on the principle that understanding the history of health, especially during the last 60 years, helps the global public health community to respond to the challenges of today and help shape a healthier future for everyone, especially those most in need. The 2011 WHO GHH seminar series will include subjects such as infant growth and nutrition, ante-natal care, health promotion, tobacco control, maternal care, childhood immunization and food security. In the second half of the year, the theme of the seminars will be environmental health, with presentations on asbestos pollution and environmental law. Presenters are health historians with expertise in a wide variety of areas from the six WHO regions.Period | 1 Feb 2011 → 7 Dec 2011 |
