Global Health Connected Community

This EUTOPIA Connected Community is concerned with issues in public health from an interdisciplinary angle, and the relationship between the local relevance of global complex problems. The recent experience of the COVID-19 pandemic has brought public health to the fore and shown that health challenges are central to modern societies and, by nature, multifaceted.
Public health, by definition, brings together multiple stakeholders, health professionals, policy organisations, government as well as the public. The CC aims to engage with these multiple audiences and develop new learning opportunities, research and evidence-based policy.
The community is led by a group of international experts who are working together on a broad range of topics related to inequalities, public health nutrition, policy development, digital learning and health, amongst others.
The community runs an annual student conference and is currently developing a MOOC for Spring 2026. The CC intends to create a virtual placement scheme and, more broadly, develop a portfolio for student connectedness beyond the traditional designs.
