The lessons to draw from COVID-19 include understanding the intersectionality of global public health, law, and human rights. This course provides an overview of major topics global health, and how both institutions and law contribute to global health and the promotion of human rights. We discuss international human rights law and the foundations of the Right to Health, global health governance, and the accountability systems as mechanisms to promote health and human rights. The throughline of the course is to develop and apply human rights analysis to the various public health challenges, including HIV and communicable disease control; sexual and reproductive health rights; noncommunicable disease and its drivers; environmental health in the climate change era; rights to water and sanitation; trade and economic policy determinants to health; health in crisis and conflict settings; and mental health.
