A new international aid program, ‘Skills for Life,’ aims to address SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) in a rural region of a low-income country. The program focuses on providing vocational training to young adults, particularly women, in areas such as sustainable agriculture, renewable energy technology, and small business management. Initial assessments have highlighted significant challenges, including limited infrastructure, high rates of illiteracy, and traditional gender roles that restrict women’s participation in the workforce.

In this unit, students examine health and human development in a global context. They use data to investigate health status and human development in different countries, exploring factors that contribute to health inequalities between and within countries, including the physical, social and economic conditions in which people live. Students build their understanding of health in a global context through examining changes in health status over time and studying the key concept of sustainability. They consider the health implications of increased globalisation and worldwide trends relating to climate change, digital technologies, world trade, tourism, conflict and the mass movement of people. Students consider global action to improve health and human development, focusing on the United Nations’ (UN’s) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the goals and objectives of the World Health Organization (WHO). They also investigate the role of non-government organisations and Australia’s overseas aid program. Students evaluate the effectiveness of health initiatives and programs in a global context and reflect on their own capacity to act.
