How a country plans for its future is heavily influenced by the population and family health. The numbers are changing, and everything changes with them. Schools, jobs, housing services, health, and even city planning. The IGNOU Post Graduate Diploma in Population and Family Health Studies Admission has been created for those who wish to study these changes in an academic, scientific and practical manner.
Unnati Education is a company that works with many students interested in demography, population studies and health systems. However, they don't know how to get started. This one-year diploma provides a structured way to enter these fields. It combines population dynamics, migration and family health in an easy-to-follow way, but is deep enough to develop expertise.
Many courses exist in the field of public health and community development. The post-graduate diploma in population and health studies offers a much more focused program. It focuses directly on the link between trends in population and the everyday life of communities and families.
