The Thammasat Faculty of Public Health’s Master of Public Health in Global Health (MPH-GH) Program is a member of a global consortium of universities (see exchange program below) that share a vision of transforming public health approaches to be responsive to current and emerging opportunities and challenges in an increasingly interconnected and interdependent world. This policy aligns with Thammasat University’s vision and mission, emphasizing quality academic work and research to prepare graduates who will be able to support the development of Thailand, the region, and beyond.

In the 21st century, our social ecologies are deeply interconnected. The globalization of trade, technology, and employment has created new economic opportunities for some, but at the cost of high levels of inequality between and within countries. Climate change threatens ecosystem sustainability and biodiversity on which human life depends. Climate change amplifies the risks of extreme weather, large-scale displacement, food insecurity, and social and political instability. All of this exacerbates marginalization such that entrenched poverty and social inequity drive mass migration, human trafficking, and regional conflicts. Governance and service delivery systems worldwide face challenges in addressing systemic discrimination and exclusion.

The rapid development of AI and related technologies presents complex ethical and governance dilemmas that may have far-reaching consequences for the concentration and use of power, its transparency and accountability, its impact on systems of governance and social structures, and, ultimately, human rights.

The Program defines global health as an area of research and practice committed to applying overtly rights-based approaches ( inclusive of cultural, social, and demographic diversity), interdisciplinary and intersectoral approaches for reducing health disparities within societies and across geopolitical borders. These approaches require experts and practitioners from multiple disciplines collaborating internationally, nationally, and locally in policy, service delivery, education, and research to bring about transformative change.

The global consortium of universities’ priorities include strengthening the components of international development. This is done by developing educational programs that give graduates from both high-income and low and middle-income countries the knowledge and skills needed for the practice of Global Health and gain employment in international, interregional, and non-government organizations and/or in their national government agencies.
