Methods and challenges in public health sciences
The International Summer School Methods and Challenges in Public Health Sciences is organised by ISSPAM and its members from the various Research Units of the Institute.
The aim of this interdisciplinary approach is to train students to understand, analyse and explain public health problems in the North and the South. It includes theoretical, practical and participatory teaching in different fields using qualitative and quantitative methods in public health sciences.
