HELP Course

6th to 17th January, 2025, online.

The Health Emergencies in Large Populations course is offered by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and for the January HELP course, the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing. For more than 25 years, the HELP course has offered humanitarian workers intensive training in the public health principles of disaster preparedness and disaster management. The course was founded to apply public health principles to the humanitarian needs of populations affected by disasters, both natural and conflict-related. 

The goal of HELP is to approach the needs of disaster-affected populations with a public health lens. The course will equip participants with the basic skills and competencies to enable them to respond to the public health needs of populations in humanitarian situations. Topics will be covered both through recorded modules prior to the course and live sessions which will build on the recorded materials. 
 
Before the workshop, participants will complete a series of online preparatory class modules requiring approximately 10-12 hours and completed at their own pace. A quiz at the end of these modules will assure you that you have mastered the basic materials to begin the live virtual workshop through Zoom.
