Community Medicine Course

What will I learn?

Improve your medical career with our Community Medicine Course (Eby'obujjanjabi bw'omu kitundu), it's designed for healthcare professionals who want to make a difference in public health. Dig deep into the differences in health (obwenkanya mu by'obulamu), what affects health (ebireeta obulamu obulungi oba obubi), and how chronic diseases spread in the community. Get good at working with the community (okukolagana n'abantu b'omu kitundu), planning what to do (enteekateeka z'okuyambako abantu), and using resources wisely (okukozesa obuyambi mu ngeri entuufu). Learn how to check on the health of the community by looking at the population and collecting information (okukungaanya ebifa ku bulamu bw'abantu). Get better at setting goals that are SMART (ebyetaago ebirambike obulungi) and building good relationships (okuzimba emikwano). Join us so you can change communities and get better at public health.
