The Global Health Case Competition is an event where interdisciplinary teams of four to six students spend one week developing a proposal to address the assigned global health issue case. Teams then present their proposals to an expert panel of judges on Competition Day. Examples of past cases include: developing a palliative care plan for the country of Indonesia; addressing sex trafficking in the US; proposing interventions to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) for the Syrian refugee crisis. The winning team goes on to compete with other universities at the Emory University Global Health Case Competition.
