Advanced Health Policy Seminar

Adv. Health Policy Semina

Health in the United States has been on the decline for decades. From 2014-2017, life expectancy declinedand then returned to 2010 levels. This is a phenomenon that has only previously been seen with catastrophic epidemicsor with massivesocio-political disruptions.Other nations have the luxury of both declines in birth rates andwith ever-increasinghealth andlongevity. These trendsmay taxpension fundsand health systemsas the population ages, but it is a good problem tohave.Immigration brings healthy, younger workersto the workforceand more taxpayersand consumersto theoverallpopulation.In poor nations, reduced immigration also reducesremittances, allowing families to afford luxurieslike childhood vaccines and anti-diarrheal medicines.In this seminar, we will try to figure out what is wrong with the United Statesand line up policies to fix these problems. We will certainly look to other countries for solutions. But mostly, we will try to come up with our own, home grown ideas.

Prerequisites: Instructor permission This course will examine the history of Japanese photography from the middle of the 19th century to the present. The seminar will be organized both chronologically and thematically. Throughout its history, photography has been a powerful medium for addressing the most challenging issues facing Japanese society. Among the topics under discussion will be: tourist photography and the representation of women within that genre in the late 19th century, the politics of propaganda photography, the construction of Japanese cultural identity through the representation of “tradition” in photography, and the interest in marginalized urban subcultures in the photography of the 1960s and 1970s. Although the course will be focused on Japan, the class will read from the literature on photography elsewhere in order to situate Japanese work within a broader context.

CHRONIC DISEASES IN HUMANITARIAN SETTING

CHRNC DIS IN HUMANITARIAN

It is estimated that two-thirds of deaths worldwide are attributable to non-communicable diseases (NCDs), with cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes mellitus, and chronic lung disease comprising the largest burden of NCDs. However, chronic diseases, including NCDs, have until recently received little attention in humanitarian settings, leaving prevention, care and treatment needs largely unaddressed among some of the most vulnerable populations. The rising numbers of refugees requiring health services, the protracted nature of modern displacement, and the changing demographics of populations living in fragile states have created compelling new health needs and challenges. It is unclear what chronic disease interventions are effective and feasible in such settings, how best to deliver them, and how well interventions are adhering to clinical best practice. As a result, there are increasing calls for a better understanding of chronic diseases and their interventions in humanitarian settings and protracted crises. This course will introduce students to an overview of chronic diseases in protracted crises, including armed conflict and political instability. The course will utilize a combination of lectures, case studies, interactive class discussions, small group exercises and presentations by expert practitioners. Chronic diseases that will be explored include cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, chronic respiratory disease. This course will also address chronic disabilities, HIV, tuberculosis and mental health within the spectrum of chronic diseases. An emphasis will be placed on understanding the contextual factors (including forced migration, natural emergencies, armed conflict, political instability and fragile states) that constrain the response to chronic diseases. Using a social and political determinants of health framework, students will gain an understanding of the main topics related to chronic diseases, including access to health care and the health care system, and case studies examining strategies and interventions for promoting health and health outcomes. The needs of vulnerable population sub-groups, including women, children, older persons and forced migrants will receive particular attention in each session. Students will be equipped with both the knowledge and skills to develop and evaluate a program to address chronic diseases, adapted to specific contexts and integrated into national and global humanitarian response systems.

Emphasis will be placed on applying biomechanical principles, the available evidence base, and clinical evaluation and management considerations underlying the clinical decision-making of orthotic prescription and clinical care for individuals with a range of orthopedic and neurologic dysfunctions. Particular attention will be paid to developing gait assessment skills to allow evaluation of gait abnormalities that can be affected with orthoses including the determination of a comprehensive plan of care to address gait dysfunction.

DIRECTING FOR STAGE MANAGERS

In the collaborative world of theatre, the director is at the helm. We, as stage managers, support the director’s creative process from rehearsals through opening night. What happens when the director leaves and turns the maintenance of the production to the stage manager? This course will help give you the tools to meet that challenge. Beginning with rehearsals, how do we best observe directors so that we can understand and preserve their vision? In preparation for working with the cast, we will discuss varying acting methods. How do we prepare our script to direct replacements, incorporating script analysis and acting beats? We will also review the basics of directing and identify the most influential directors now, and in recent history.
