SUMMARY:Gendered Harm II: The Gendered Impact of Biological and Chemical Weapons
DESCRIPTION:Join WIIS and the Embassy of Liechtenstein on June 4th at 11:oo AM (EDT) for a virtual discussion on the gendered impacts of chemical and biological weapons. This event\, which builds upon last year’s event\, Gendered Harm: The Disproportionate Impact of Weapons on Women and Girls\, aims to advance policy debates and outcomes by addressing issues such as the differentiated biological impacts\, emerging technologies\, and equitable gender representation in these fields. \n  \nThis event will present experts on gender and chemical and biological weapons to find new ways of acknowledging the gendered impact of these weapons and possible ways of advancing the policy debate and outcomes in the field. This discussion will take stock of the ways in which weapons can harm women and girls; emerging technologies and gender\, ethical\, and social impacts; best practices of acknowledging gendered harm in arms control and\ndisarmament debates; proposals for practitioners to address the disproportionate impact that weapons\ncan have on women and girls; and the need to address the lack of equitable gender representation in the fields. \n\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:“Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War”
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nJoin Women In International Security (WIIS) on June 26\, 2024\, at 11:00 AM (EDT)\, for an in-person talk with Dr. Tanisha Fazal on her publication\, Military Medicine and the Hidden Costs of War. The book talk will raise issues of gender\, the development of military medicine\, and women’s veterans benefits in today’s military health system. \n  \nThe book traces the histories of US military medicine and veterans benefits through the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. 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 beyond fatalities and materiel directly to the question of veterans benefits—and to the state of military healthcare support for women veterans. What are the key issues for women service members today\, what are the disparities in health care for women\, and what are we missing\, in terms of veterans’ health\, when we cost out war? \n  \nRegister Here\nDue to space limitations\, registration is required.\n  \nOpening Remarks\n  \nAriela Blätter \nPresident and CEO\, Women In International Security \n  \nPanelists\n  \nDr. Tanisha M. Fazal \nProfessor\, University of Minnesota \n  \nTracey Pérez Koehlmoos  \nDirector of the Center for Health Services Research and Director of Doctoral Programs in Public Health\, National Defense University \n  \nLourdes Tiglao \nExecutive Director\, Center for Women Veterans\, US Department of Veterans Affairs \n  \nModerator\n  \nDr. Karin L. Johnston \nResearch Director\, Women In International Security
