Global Health Storytelling is an interdisciplinary class for journalism and public health students who have a passionate interest in crafting rich, nuanced, compelling narratives about global health for a broad audience. This is a class for public health students who want to create multi-media narratives about public health science, practice, and policies in a style and format that will appeal to all readers. Likewise, it is a class for journalism or other communication-focused students interested in strengthening their understanding of public health. Students will develop visual and narrative storytelling skills and practice through a multi-draft writing process while also learning to use still and video cameras and editing techniques. Students will learn from public health and journalism professors, guest speakers, and each other as they work on team reporting projects.
