How can systems-thinking be used in Global Health research, policy and practice? Systems thinking is an approach used to make sense of complex issues by considering the wider relationships and interactions that are involved. It can be used to explore and identify effective solutions to ‘wicked problems’ in global health, by enabling systems change.

This textbook brings together an extensive range of ideas from authors across the globe in different Global Health disciplines. Learn about complex health issues spanning from infectious disease outbreaks to community health worker programmes, war and conflict, and mental health, and how they can be looked at using a systems-thinking lens.

The authors delve into specific tools and strategies for approaching systems thinking, as well as outlining limitations to the approach. This virtual book launch  aims to introduce the textbook’s relevance in our current globalised, ever-changing world and explore how it can be applied in your own work or studies. Hear from the editors how the book came about, and how the 27 chapters evolved.

There will be plenty of opportunity for audience Q&A with the editors and the SYSTAC European Hub. 

The textbook can be found via Oxford Press in paperback or as an Ebook.
