Detail

Course Summary

The social determinants of health (SDH) are the non-medical factors such as the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age, that influence health outcomes. Some researches show that the social determinants can be more important than health care or lifestyle choices in influencing health. We welcome students who value an inclusive society and community for health and wellbeing of individuals.
The restriction of on- and off-campus activities due to COVID-19 may continue this semester. However, each study group will deepen discussions on their own topic and if it's possible, they will conduct some field research.
Some examples of issues carried out in the past were parent-child relationships, mental health, sex and gender, and end-of-life. In addition to these topics, making connection and creating community in the post-corona era is important thus, students who are interested in such topics are also welcome.
We are open for the diversity.
