About the Course

The world is facing unprecedented humanitarian needs. Today’s humanitarian crisis tend to be greater in number, often in urban settings, longer in duration and broader in regional impact. They generate human sufferings on a greater scale, disrupt essential services, such as water supply or sanitation and put health of large population at risk. Engineers and technical specialists in water, sanitation, energy, environment, and in other related fields play a vital role to respond to these challenges and growing needs. In the humanitarian sector, they are called the public health engineers and today they are increasingly needed! Why public health engineering matters so much in humanitarian crises? And how its related activities are carrying out in such complex environment? This is what this MOOC is all about! The EPFL, EAWAG-SANDEC and ICRC have decided to partner to guide you through this introduction to the fascinating field of public health engineering in humanitarian contexts....

This was a very interesting course. I learned a lot about waste management, there is so much more to it than I imagined. I only have one complaint and that is the interface. It was very difficult for me to navigate the pages using a macbook air.

Extremely interesting and helpful. Only advice would be for the lecturers to speak in their native language and provide subtitles. The spoken english is sometimes hard to understand.

Great bibliography! Presentations are nice for an introduction. more advanced course would be nice. For tests, why not adding more questions? (with 8 only one can be missed)

The tick boxes are often not in line with the option in the quiz/tests making it oftendifficult to tick the correct option
