It also develops foundational understanding of the core competencies of public health practice. These include the ability to apply knowledge of public health sciences, including the social sciences, understand how to create inclusive programs and policies for diverse populations, assess and analyse complex social and health information, and develop partnerships and collaborations through which to advocate for reducing health inequities. By participating in this unit you will gain insight into multidisciplinary approaches to addressing the health needs of communities and broader populations.","title-full":"PUB215 Upstream!
