The Global Health Summer programme is a one-week course in which students and young professionals from diverse disciplines and regions of the world come together to learn, discuss, and connect at the intersections of health, peace, and socio-ecological transformation. It is accompanied by a one-day public conference, organized to a great extent by summer school alumni.
This year’s Global Health Summer School will focus on trauma, empowerment, and the right to health in the context of forced displacement and flight. Throughout the program, an intersectional and emancipatory perspective is encouraged. Insights into global health architecture and its interplay with migration politics will be gained. Academic debates on trauma, resilience, and healing, considering the role of culture, society, and politics, will be discussed. Questions will be raised on how human rights-based and decolonial approaches to trauma and psychosocial work change the way violence and health are perceived. To achieve this, lived experiences of migrant people and refugees will be juxtaposed with critiques of border regimes and asylum systems of the Global North.
The course fees are as follows:
Students: 250 Euro (incl. 100 Euros for meals)
Professionals (with regular income): 450 Euros (incl. 100 Euros for meals)
IPPNW members: 190 Euro (incl. 100 Euros for meals)
Please hand in your application through the application form until May 29th 2024.
