Global Health Instruments, 30 November - 2 December
IHEID
Graduate Institute (IHEID)
nternational health instruments play an important role as tools for shaping collective responses to global health challenges. They have been under constant development and renewal for decades to address the increasing complexity of determinants and drivers of health. Further, they are closely linked to health diplomacy and governance, two other pillars of global health – as both object and outcome of multilateral and multisectoral negotiations for health and as tools for delivering and governing health.Graduate Institute (IHEID), Switzerland

Global Health and Drug Policy, 19-21 October 2020
IHEID
Graduate Institute (IHEID)
The 2016 United Nations General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on the World Drug Problem set the tone for the drug policy reform debate, but moving forward, many fear that this tone will be lost. In this 3-day course we will explore questions such as: What should the new direction post-2019 be for the future UN governance of international drug policy? How can different actors contribute to a global process in order to ensure that drug policies improve rather than harm the health and welfare of people? What should the role of civil society and user networks be in the international debate on drug policies?DegreeCourse TypeLanguage

Le genre au temps des pandémies: Comprendre les crises sanitaires et planifier des réponses genrées, du 4 nov. au 8 déc. 2020
English version coming on February 2021
Les questions de genre passent souvent au second plan face à l'urgence d'agir en temps de pandémie. Les crises du VIH/Sida, MERS, H1N1, Ebola ou Zika ont pourtant démontré l’importance de l’approche intersectionnelle et genrée pour répondre de manière adéquate aux besoins différenciés des populations. La pandémie de COVID-19, au scénario sans précédent, a une fois encore exacerbé les inégalités et éclairé les discriminations fondées sur le genre, la classe sociale, l’âge, le groupe ethnique et le handicap. Mais elle a aussi confirmé la capacité des femmes à résister et s’organiser face aux situations de crise, et entrouvert des fenêtres de changement. Il devient urgent de tirer les leçons du passé, de s'outiller, et de planifier des réponses stratégiques qui réduisent durablement les inégalités de genre et endiguent les effets des crises qui les font perdurer.
Public cible
Cette formation s’adresse aux responsables et praticien·ne·s des secteurs public, privé et non gouvernemental ainsi qu'aux chercheur·e·s qui souhaitent s’approprier des méthodes et outils pour intégrer le genre dans la gestion des pandémies.
Objectifs
- Analyser comment les pandémies produisent et/ou aggravent les inégalités dans les différentes régions du monde via une approche genrée et intersectionnelle
- Comprendre, à travers les approches féministes, l'impact des modèles de développement et des politiques publiques sur les inégalités structurelles de genre
- Acquérir des méthodes et des outils pour adapter ou élaborer des programmes et des projets plus inclusifs et plus égalitaires
- Planifier des réponses stratégiques genrées à court, moyen, et/ou long terme

Many different forms of migration exist and human mobility shapes global health, impacting on domestic and foreign policies of sending, transition and receiving countries. The health of migrants is influenced by these different policies and legal frameworks but also by the practices surrounding migration. Yet, the act of migration alone does not cause any disease. Rather, the socioeconomic, political, cultural and environmental conditions connected to the act of migration can impact on health and the vulnerability to disease. National health systems are often put under pressure to respond to large-scale movements and diplomacy comes into play to find cross-border, collective solutions. Health can serve as an entry point for these diplomatic actions and new governance mechanisms need to be negotiated to respond appropriately to migration crises.This brand-new course will seek to explore the emerging role of cities as global actors and drivers of change.
