"Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War”: A Book Talk with Author Dr. Tanisha Fazal
On June 26, 2024, Women In International Security hosted an in-person talk with Dr. Tanisha Fazal on her publication, Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War.

It argues that improvements in military medicine have resulted in a third more military personnel surviving their wounds, but it has also meant that more military personnel are returning home with serious injuries. Thus, the human and financial costs of war extend bey...

Просмотров 4112 года назад

2:48 This is not the worst refugee crises since the second world war. It is the worst refugee crises in Europe since the Second World War. For example the partition of Indian subcontinent was probably larger. Shame on you!

Great Idea to expand trafficking task force. The biggest problem America faces is human trafficking. It's also the most profitable.
Congratulations to both editors and the contributing authors for their book and to those who appear in this enriching video. I am looking forward to the second volume in the series and more attention to additional social diversity issues (race/ethnicity, indigeneity, age, more) cross-cutting with gender as people experience and address insecurity in so many domains of life.
