Arrière plan
Kennesaw State University Assistant Professor of Nursing, Dr. Christie Emerson, invited CIFAL Atlanta Program Manager, Ms. Lola Owokoniran, to present for a second year to her International Health Policy class. This course was designed to serve a variety of students who are interested in international or global health issues. Students enrolled in this course gain a better understanding of the cultural, social, economic, political, environmental, demographic, biological, technological, and ethical issues which impact international health. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals support addressing these aspects to lead to improvements globally to our health and well-being, and Ms. Owokoniran’s was invited to share the framework and further explain the implications of the global goals.

The presentation included engaging presentations and a group activity where the class was split into groups to discuss how each pillar of the sustainable development goals connected to good health and well-being and how the goals serve as an aid to address key global issues. The session also ended with a networking opportunity.
