About GHHP

  • The Secondary Field in Global Health and Health Policy is centered on the interdisciplinary exploration of health care, health policy, and health science. Through a curriculum that encourages experiential learning, the program enables students to explore a wide range of topics ranging from transnational health problems and social determinants to a concentrated focus on social responses, such as health systems and health policies. Upon completion of the secondary field, GHHP students have learned to actively engage with complex themes from a variety of perspectives, conduct health-related research, and critically think about the full spectrum of health issues, both domestic and global.

Two GHHP students win prestigious Hoopes Prize

May 14, 2019

Global Health & Health Policy (GHHP) students and Cordeiro Fellows Ashri Anurudran and Esmé Trahair were awarded the prestigious Thomas Temple Hoopes Prize for their senior theses. Both women had spent their junior summer conducting research funded by the Cordeiro Fellowship, one of two fellowships open to GHHP Secondary Field students. Earlier this month, Esmé and Ashri presented the findings of their research to their peers and to members of the Cordeiro family.

Ashri’s economics thesis entitled “Empower to Eliminate: A Randomized Evaluation of a Sexual Violence Prevention Program in Kisumu, Kenya” was nominated by Dr. Kiran Gajwani. Esmé’s anthropology thesis entitled “The Sons of All Australia: Masculinities, Mental Health, and the ‘Aussie Bloke’” was nominated by Professor Arthur Kleinman.

Congratulations Ashri and Esmé!... Read more about Two GHHP students win prestigious Hoopes Prize
