Systems thinking and systems models devise strategies to account for real world complexities. Systems thinking is a core skill in public health and helps health policymakers build programs and policies that are aware of and prepared for unintended consequences.Īn important part of systems thinking is the practice to integrate multiple perspectives and synthesize them into a framework or model that can describe and predict the various ways in which a system might react to policy change. If an outcome depends on many interacting and adaptive parts and actors the outcome cannot be analyzed or predicted with traditional statistical methods.

Problems in public health and health policy tend to be complex with many actors, institutions and risk factors involved. meanwhile, a covered extensive living space is created when the roof is raised.This course provides an introduction to systems thinking and systems models in public health. large solar panels on its roof take a wing shape when unfolded, doubling the solar surface to 17.5 sqm, recharging the batteries faster - fully recharge in about two sunny days. Students from the eindhoven university of technology (see more here) designed stella vita, a motorhome that can travel up to 730 km on a sunny day while reaching up to a range of 600 km when cloudy. all images courtesy of bart van overbeekeħ30 km without charging and harming the environment

the camping-like vehicle provides you a living and working environment simply using the energy of the sun it ensures enough energy for driving, charging your laptop, or watching TV, but the user is the one who should choose how to utilize this power an infotainment system shows exactly the remaining energy and the options one has with this amount. The designers sought to make the user aware of one’s energy consumption. through its solar panels on the roof, the vehicle generates enough energy for both traveling and living including all the necessities like making coffee, cooking, or taking a shower. Stella vita is the world’s first solar-poweredmobile home designed by solar team eindhoven - a team of 22 students of eindhoven university of technology. Stella vita is a self-sustaining house on wheels
