Second EUPHAM lecture cycle with Dr. Marko Isajlović from the Danish Refugee Council

The second cycle of EUPHAM lectures has been held on April 21 and 22, with Dr. Marko Isajlović from @Danish Refugee Council Bosnia-Herzegovina having a two-day session with EUPHAM students. 

Migratory patterns leave severe impact on both physical and mental wellbeing. Things like medical assistance and documentation are crucial aspects that tie into policies and public health organizational principles.  

Danish Refugee Council plays an enormous role in providing professional assistance and recognizing boiling points in food, shelter, water, sanitation and hygiene supplies.  

With help of Dr. Isajlović, EUPHAM students have experienced the perils of being a person of the move and challenges they face daily in accumulating health-related issues. It was a rewarding and interesting experience having a true expert from practice, who was able to share with us real-life knowledge and know-how procedures.

 

Next sessions are coming up in May.

First EUPHAM sessions with expert lecturers finally held

After an exciting inaugural conference, many meetings, and brainstorming sessions, it’s finally here – the EUPHAM teaching module has finally had its first lectures.

With more than 30 participants in the first session, two intense days, and three expert lecturers, we have discussed the European Union origins and institutions, decision-making processes, and stakeholder roles, with a focus on public health and migrations.

Professors Adnan Huskić (University SSST, Bosnia-Herzegovina) and Michal Vít (Metropolitan University Prague, Czech Republic), provided an in-depth theoretical approach, while professor Maja Savić-Bojanić opted out for a more interactive outlook, engaging participants in „Let’s Cross the Sea“ workshop. They could individually learn about different types of migrations and migrants, economic situations, and living conditions leading to migration and ultimately affecting health.

April sessions, with lectures scheduled for April 19, 20, and 21, are already in-store, with experts from practice joining the cohort. While professor Semira Galijašević will lead the way on the ethics approach to migration, we are especially excited for a close-up session with the Danish Refugee Council – Bosnia-Herzegovina, providing an expert approach to migrant policies.

Looking forward to upcoming EUPHAM sessions!
