Fundamentals of Global Health Quality Improvement
The aim of the Fundamentals of Global Health Quality Improvement course is to teach global health practitioners the principles of quality improvement in low- and middle-income countries. This includes engaging communities and stakeholders, identifying metrics, developing frameworks for inciting change, using tools to measure change, and implementing strategies to problem-solve through iteration and feedback. In addition, this course will teach general principles of patient safety and patient-centered care, with a focus on global settings. Workshops will allow learners to use the methodology that they are learning to work on improvement projects.
