Description
How can testimony and storytelling help us understand the suffering and trauma of victims of conflict? Why is the act of bearing witness to trauma politically important in terms of raising awareness, healing, and reconciliation?
In this episode, Dr Pablo De Orellana, Lecturer at War Studies, sits down with two authors, Professor Minoli Salgado and Gareth Owen, who retold stories of trauma in conflict. Together, they explore the emotional divide between those who suffer and those who impose suffering in conflict. They also discuss how trauma is politicised after it has happened, highlighting the emotional and psychological aspects of trauma and aid work.
