The Public Health Impact of Sexually Tra
You’ve probably heard the good news of a public health success: rates of new HIV infections are declining. And you may have deduced, quite logically, that the same may be true of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In fact, in an alarming trend, the converse is true. Rates of STIs in the US have steadily increased over the past four years, with over 20 million cases of STIs diagnosed annually, at a cost to the American taxpayer of over $19 billion. And yet, many public health professionals lack expertise in effective practices to control STIs, and the cultural competency necessary to translate critical content to vulnerable populations.
This course will equip you with the knowledge and skills to address current and emerging issues within the field of sexually transmitted Infections. You will explore the social determinants that contribute to STI outcomes; learn what approaches are most effective in different contexts, from schools and colleges to correctional facilities to family units; develop social marketing methods to reach a variety of vulnerable communications; and more. You can play a crucial role in helping to curb this epidemic. This course will teach you how.

Realizing Global LGBTI Health and Human
LGBTI Health & Hum Rights
The global movement to realize lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) rights has both gained traction and faced significant pushback in recent years: although global normative and legal frameworks have evolved in some ways to recognize the rights of sexual and gender minorities, LGBTI people around the world are experiencing progress, setbacks, and scapegoating. The course will apply concepts of equity, access, inclusion, and human rights to interrogate how and why sexual and gender minorities are often excluded from humanitarian and development interventions despite the compounding oppressions that they face. Drawing upon the practice of public health and human rights work from humanitarian crises and low- and middle-income countries around the world, this course will explore how practitioners and advocates can best understand the evolution of LGBTI human rights in a variety of contexts; students will also probe how to become effective and supportive partners and allies to grassroots movements and organizations. Through a series of case studies, students will examine how LGBTI people are challenging the gender binary in societies around the world, including biases inherent in the structures of humanitarian and development work, and how such activists, advocates, and artists are mobilizing to ensure their inclusion in decision-making fora and their access to health and other services. Students will also consider and develop strategies to support local activists in these movements; these activists embody the intrinsic vulnerability of being sexual and gender minorities in countries where those identities are criminalized, the courage of those determined to change their societies, and the cunning to seize upon the societal jolts that humanitarian and development work can, sometimes, provide.

Reproductive Justice Movements: Black Bo
REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE MOVE
Black history is a subject that has been largely repressed, rewritten, and condensed in the cataloging of American history. The colonization of Africa, the centuries of slavery, and the subsequent discrimination and marginalization of people of African descent have all contributed to an under-representation of black voices in the mainstream historical record. Reproductive Justice, the term originally coined by 16 Black women in the US suffered for many years from such under-representation even as it was adopted by three other communities of color during the 1990s in an attempt to draw attention to the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, have children, not have children, and parent the children we have in safe and sustainable communities. Attempts to realize this human right have been intentionally thwarted in US, Latin American and even African societies far before it was named. This course will investigate Black sexuality and attempts to use it throughout history to denigrate Black cultures with special attention to Black feminism and the fight to reclaim reproductive autonomy in cultures mired with racism and sexism.

Abortion in the United States: Politics
ABORTION IN THE UNITED ST
This course examines a range of historical and current issues relating to the politics, policies and provision of abortion in the United States. Students will engage with a wide range of texts and resources and will hear from experts in the field. In the seven sessions, students will analyze real-time policy debates and developments in the courts, review recent social science research and messaging research from reproductive health, rights, and justice experts and discuss the role that research plays in public policy with experts themselves. This course will examine the history of abortion in the United States to better understand how provision has changed over time as laws have evolved and how abortion has become so politically fraught. It will delve into recent research studies on abortion access and examine how various laws have impacted abortion access, how immigration status impacts access to care, and how abortion access impacts economic outcomes across the lifecycle. We will examine polling on abortion attitudes to discern the current state of public opinion, how it is measured and what we can glean from it. Students will learn more about the range of abortion methods currently offered, and will hear from abortion providers about how those procedures have evolved, how those procedures are (or could be) impacted by public policy, and how medical advances are and will continue to change abortion. Lastly, it will review how states are experimenting with policies that expand access to sexual and reproductive health care and allow students to imagine what inclusive, effective policies could look like at the state, federal and international level.
