MPH 623 - Women’s Health: Lifeword Persp

Unit(s): 2

This course examines women’s health across the lifespan via a lifeworld perspective. A lifeworld perspective examines how a woman is historically, culturally, politically, economically, and socially situated in the immediate world she is a part of and how each of these influence and determine the choices she will have, and ultimately impact her health and well-being. The course aims to prepare the public health practitioner to interpret these factors along with the epidemiological factors, and apply them in developing interventions, programs, and policies to improve overall quality of life for women from adolescence to old age.
