Unit: PUBH320 – One Health Approaches to Global Health Challenges<\/strong> Australian Catholic University (2025)<\/strong><\/p>\n Dear students,<\/p>\n As we navigate the pressing realities of our changing world, it’s heartening to see your growing grasp of how interconnected health systems truly are. This assessment invites you to bring that understanding to life, focusing on a topic that’s not just academically vital but deeply human in its implications\u2014how climate shifts are reshaping the landscape of infectious diseases. Drawing from the real-world urgency we’ve discussed in lectures, like the way warmer temperatures are unlocking new pathways for pathogens, you’ll craft a presentation that doesn’t just inform but sparks thoughtful action.<\/p>\n Task Overview<\/strong> Prepare and deliver a 15-minute oral presentation (plus 5 minutes for Q&A) on the intersection of climate change and infection risks. Your work should weave together evidence-based analysis with practical foresight, mirroring the collaborative spirit of One Health principles. Use tools like PowerPoint, Google Slides, or Prezi to create engaging visuals\u2014think maps of at-risk regions or flowcharts of risk frameworks\u2014to make your insights accessible and compelling.<\/p>\n Key Requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n Your presentation must draw on at least 8 credible, current sources (peer-reviewed journals preferred, from 2019 onwards) to build a robust narrative\u2014citations in APA style on slides and a reference list at the end. Aim for clarity and flow: start with a hook (maybe a recent outbreak story), build your case, and end with forward-looking recommendations. We’ll peer-review drafts in week 8 to nurture your confidence.<\/p>\n Submission and Marking<\/strong> Upload your slides and a 500-word script outline to the unit portal by 5pm, Week 10 (Friday, 14 March 2025). Presentations occur in Weeks 11-12, scheduled in tutorials. Rubric emphasises critical depth (40%), evidence integration (30%), visual\/ delivery effectiveness (20%), and originality (10%). Late submissions incur a 5% daily penalty; extensions for compassionate reasons are always considered\u2014just reach out.<\/p>\n This task aligns beautifully with our learning outcomes:<\/p>\n I’m genuinely excited to hear your voices on this\u2014it’s work that could echo in real policy rooms one day. If you’re feeling daunted, pop into my office hours; we’re in this together.<\/p>\n Warm regards, Dr. Elena Hargrove Senior Lecturer in Public Health Australian Catholic University<\/p>\n Hess, J.J., Ramaswami, A., Kim, K.S., Rai, P.S., Ramanathan, V., Opoku-Agyemang, K., & Concha, A.
