Summary

This seminar aims to provide an understanding of global health in Africa from an interdisciplinary perspective through the outcomes of public health, midwifery, and environmental engineering. Based on the features of African area studies, such as the local issues-oriented fieldwork, we will also examine the possibility of working with local people to engage in practical activities.
