This five-day open-enrollment program invites you to explore the intersection of global health and environmental policy — and how these two fields work together to address some of the world’s most pressing sustainability challenges. By integrating Duke Kunshan University’s Master of Science in Global Health (GH) and international Master of Environmental Policy (iMEP) programs, the course offers you an immersive learning experience that connects human health, environment, and sustainable policy design.

In the first two days, you’ll dive into the world of global health—exploring how public health systems work, what drives health equity, and how climate change is reshaping human well-being. Through an interdisciplinary lens, you’ll uncover the dynamic and complex links between health and the environment. In the following two days, the focus shifts to environmental policy, where you’ll engage with pressing topics like environmental governance, environmental pollution, and innovative strategies for building a sustainable future.

Through interactive lectures, hands-on workshops, and team-based leadership projects, you will apply what you learn to real-world cases at the intersection of health and environment. By the end of the program, you’ll work with your peers to develop innovative policy solutions and experience the power of interdisciplinary collaboration in shaping a sustainable future.
