Description

ISIS child soldiers. Families separated at the U.S.-Mexico border. Victims of sexual violence in Africa.

Across the globe, survivors of traumatic events endure devastating psychological effects—often without access to mental health services.

At the seventh annual Johns Hopkins-Pulitzer Symposium, Bloomberg School faculty and award-winning journalists from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting share their findings from trauma's frontlines and explore ways to heal its wounds.

Speakers:

  • Judy Bass, Ph.D., MPH, associate professor of Global Mental Health in the Department of Mental Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health (host and moderator)
  • Kimberly Dozier, MA, CNN Global Affairs Analyst, former CBS Evening News foreign and national security correspondent, and Pulitzer Center grantee
  • Laura Murray, Ph.D., MA, associate scientist, Department of Mental Health and Center for Humanitarian Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
  • Pat Nabong, MA, freelance journalist, director of Alone in the Aftermath (a documentary on the extrajudicial drug war killings in the Philippines), and Pulitzer Center grantee
  • Paul Spiegel, MD, MPH, director of the Center for Humanitarian Health and professor of the practice, Department of International Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
