This course explores human behavior as a critical determinant of health, emphasizing its impact on leading risk factors for mortality and disability. It highlights the limitations of traditional approaches in persuading people to adopt healthier behaviors, showing that information alone is often insufficient for change. Participants will examine key health risks, including undernutrition, unsafe sex, and substance abuse, while learning about emerging evidence on effective behavior-change strategies. The program also extends beyond the health sector, demonstrating how these insights can be applied across different policy areas. By completing this program, learners will be better equipped to integrate behavior-change principles into health reforms aimed at achieving universal health coverage.
