Strongly recommend to those who want to start their career in Humanitarian Health and want to get a solid background in the field. Of course not everything is covered but it provides an excellent foundation.
Be ware that you might wait for your certificate for 1 week since your final assignment needs peer review.

As a humanitarian clinician ,learning some public health aspects is worthy and has helped me to understand so many issues related to my current work in the field.
Eg: The clinical care is for individual or person interests and the public heath approach is for the population interest in general.

To me the course has designed in such a way that it is suitable for any person to get a basic understanding on the complexity to respond a humanitarian crisis. Professor Gilbert, Professor Spiegel, Professor Ververs, Professor Robert and Ms Jana Mason have made the course interesting, entertaining and they have engaged me with practical experiences which helped me to understand or conceptualize the complex issues around Humanitarian Crisis. I am glad that I have got the opportunity to go through the course and I feel I have had a solid foundation on the basic problems during humanitarian crisis and how I can put myself

It was indeed a privilege to learn about Public Health in Humanitarian Crises-1 from the renowned John Hopkins University. PHHC addressed the broad issues that can affect the public health and healthcare system during a disaster and how as a public health professional we need to handle the situation. This course provided a solid foundation on issues that impact the population health and healthcare system during an emergency. I am now pursuing Public Health in Humanitarian Crises-2 for because I am confident that this learnings will help me to redefine my work.
Thanks to John Hopkins Team and Coursera.

THANK YOU JOHNS HOPKINS AND THE LECTURES WHO PUT THIS INSIGHTFUL KNOWLEDGE OUT FOR US,IT IS AN EYE OPENING TO KNOW WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS TO PEOPLE,WHAT SOME HUMANS HAD TO GO THROUGH AT ONE POINT OR THE OTHER IN LIFE.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I LEFT MY BANKING JOB TO BECOME A HUMANITARIAN WORKER.

It was detailed but not too difficult to follow. It gets you thinking about the issues that we face presently in the world and shows you was to apply your classroom learning to real life situations. I am glad I took the course.

The course is an eye opener to diverse health conditions associated with humanitarian crisis. Of particular interest is the understanding that these conditions or challenges are not just limited to communicable diseases.
