Course objectives:
- To learn about the opportunities, challenges, and methods for designing, evaluating, and implementing digital public health interventions
- To acknowledge different intervention designs and evaluation methods and apply them to a specific digital public health topic
- To be able to critically assess factors to be considered when implementing digital public health interventions in real-world scenario
