What will you learn?

Health also raises questions without a single answer. In this course you will learn to reflect on the major ethical dilemmas that arise in the field of nutrition and health sciences, from the relationship with patients to the challenges of the food industry, public health, or research. You will develop a critical perspective and tools to analyze complex situations, make responsible decisions, and understand how values, rights, and people are at the center of any professional practice.
