On the GCC India-Perspectives in Global and Community Health program, explore issues in healthcare, human rights, and environmental effects on health. From the government’s attempts at universal coverage to the revolutionary Dr. Devi Shetty to its status as one of the world’s largest generic-drug producers, India is at the leading edge of discussion and debate around healthcare quality, access, and legislation.
Learn about the major strengths and weaknesses of the Indian healthcare delivery system and compare them to those of the US system. Explore the cultural and social determinants that impact healthcare as you collaborate with nursing students at Salokaya College of Nursing in New Delhi.
During your time in New Delhi, you will be paired with a Salokaya nursing student who can speak Hindi as you observe clinical healthcare in urban and rural settings in and around New Delhi. Participate in community outreach, including educational interventions at rural clinics, schools, and NGOs that provide health services.
