Goal

 

The International People’s Health University (IPHU) is one of the global programs of the People's Health Movement. IPHU caters to PHM's goal of "Expanding the base of strong advocates through capacity buidling"

 

Objectives

The International People’s Health University (IPHU) aims to contribute to ‘health for all’ by strengthening people’s health movements around the globe, by organizing and resourcing learning, sharing, and planning opportunities for people’s health activists. The IPHU-

·    organises short course opportunities for health activists from around the world particularly from Third World countries;

·    presents a range of learning opportunities; a growing collection of resource materials; and a wider network of resource people to progressively enhance its programs;

·    sponsors and coordinates research into the barriers to Health for All and strategies to support the people’s struggle for health.

Short Course Opportunities- IPHU through its PHM region or country circle, thematic circles, or the global unit and through collaborations with local universities and popular movements presents short course opportunities for health activists. These vary in both duration and content. The course could be online or in-person or a combination of both.  Check here for the information on past courses.

Generate and Make Available a Library of Educational Resources- IPHU is accumulating a library of educational resources including lectures, references and teaching modules which are available for local activist organisations and teaching institutions to draw from (and contribute to) in the context of presenting local learning and sharing opportunities. Check our digital library which we are starting to populate.

Sponsor Research- IPHU has a strong commitment to action research and action learning as a way of structuring reflection and learning into our practice. IPHU sponsors and coordinates research programs including:

-strategic empirical research into population health and health care questions which confront the people's health movement;

-action research and action learning networks around the practicalities of health activist work and

 

-research synthesis to make research findings accessible and applicable to health activists within the people's health movement.

 

 

Much of the research synthesis sponsored by the IPHU takes place in the course of preparing short course topics and modules. The need for new research and research synthesis arises in the context of discussions within courses as students and teachers work through issues of analysis and strategy. While the need for various research initiatives may be identified within the forums of IPHU and may be facilitated, coordinated, and encouraged through IPHU; it is carried out by ad hoc networks based on the faculty and alumni of the IPHU and hosted largely in affiliated organizations.
