Symposium of the Global Research Alliance of Jesuit Universities - GRAJU 2026, Ciudad Quezon (Filipinas). 09-12 marzo 2026
Resumen:
Evidence suggest health professionals bear a significant but small contribution to the health of populations. On-health sector professionals designing and executing housing, transportation, manufacturing, communications, and justice, among others, are accountable --often times without even knowing, of a much larger contribution to health. The challenge is to integrate health content into non-health undergraduate and post graduate teaching to accelerate transformation of societies into fairer and healthier societies. Our proposed initiative sets up a path forward.
Resumen divulgativo:
La salud de la población depende en gran medida de decisiones fuera del ámbito sanitario. Esta iniciativa integra contenidos de salud en estudios como ingeniería, derecho o economía y, mediante recursos flexibles, promueve que futuros profesionales contribuyan a sociedades más justas y saludables.
Palabras clave: teaching, transformation, inequities, health
