The seminar will address the major values and international issues relating to development aid interventions in the countries of the Global South.
It will address three main themes: current debates on the universality of human rights and common goods; the place of health in the global management of international affairs by the UN, its programmes and agencies, and other international organisations; and the integration of a global approach to development aid in contexts and states described as fragile, in response to the requirements of development aid effectiveness (Paris Declaration, 2005).
Each of these 3 areas will be addressed on the basis of one or more case studies, in order to ground the lessons in the reality of a field close to the working conditions of the participants.
