Course Content
Since 2007, more than half of the world population lives in an urban environment. Urban citizens live in environments that offer both opportunities and threats for health. The poor in expanding urban slums often suffer from worse health indicators than the rural poor, with ‘urban averages’ hiding considerable inequalities between the poor and rich city dwellers.
The achievement of several of the MDGs depends on the improvement of the lives of the poor in urban areas.
