Collateral Damage: Preserving Health and Humanity During War (with Larry Gostin)
Manage episode 385241083 series 2734588
This episode marks the first in a new On the Issues series: “Collateral Damage.” In these episodes, we probe where news typically falls off, and its neglect of the impact of war on women. The crises of sexual violence they face, which is a deliberate tactic in war. We examine maternal and reproductive health, the role of women in peacekeeping, and so much more.
In this episode, we start with health and why it's sacred and must be protected even in war, delving into issues of bioethics and health care during conflict. In times of war, who protects the patients, the mothers, the babies? Are there bridges too far that shouldn't be crossed, even in war?
Joining us to discuss these crucial matters is a very special guest:
Larry Gostin: Professor Larry Gostin co-directs the O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law and is a university professor and the Founding O’Neill Chair in Global Health Law at Georgetown University. He is also the Director of the World Health Organization (WHO) Collaborating Center on National and Global Health Law.
