Conflict And Health Roundup

by Christopher R. Albon on February 25, 2010

It has been a good week on Conflict Health, with our first guest post by Paul Kan. Even better, this the first week I have had a car in South Africa (a 2004 VW Citigolf, if you were wondering). Below is a selection of items I did not get to writing about this week:

Stars and Stripes reporter asks, “When will the U.S. mission to Haiti end?“.

Huffington Post’s take on health diplomacy.

Journal article: Measuring the Scale and Distribution of Armed Violence.

Journal article: Tracking Violence in Timor-Leste: A Sample of Emergency Room Data, 2006–08.

Information Dissemination takes on hearts and minds.

Civil-Military relations in Haiti, from the ground.

Journal article: Patterns of Mortality Rates in Darfur Conflict.

Charli Carpenter on counting casualties in the Congo.

Read the Timor Leste article, and I gotta say that was better left unwritten. Sometimes you should just pull the plug and say “well, that didn’t work, let’s try something else”.
