The Centre of Social Medicine and Community Health at Jawaharlal Nehru University, was started in 1971 with the mandate of evolving the contours of the discipline as suited to the Indian context with all its diversity, and with special attention to the vulnerable sections. The experience of developing its theoretical base and curriculum for the various teaching and research programmes offered by the Centre have served well over generations of students and faculty. Many more institutions have initiated Public Health programmes and research, contributing immensely to the development of the discipline and its practice. Collaborations with many of them have enriched our own work.
As a culmination to the yearlong celebrations of our golden jubilee, the Centre is hosting the following:
