Please join the Harriman Institute, the Institute for the Study of Human Rights (ISHR), and the SIPA Human Rights and Humanitarian Policy concentration for a talk by Mariam Antadze, project coordinator at the Georgian Centre for Psychosocial and Medical Rehabilitation of Torture Victims and Fellow at the ISHR Human Rights Advocates Program. Moderated by Elise Giuliano (Harriman Institute).

Mariam Antadze will discuss the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and its mental health and psychosocial implications on communities. Focusing on how war affects mental health and psychosocial development facilitates a better understanding of trauma experienced by people who are directly or indirectly affected. Among the topics Antadze will discuss: Russia's post-Soviet invasions chronologically; what we have learned from Russia's war in Georgia; understanding how sociopolitical and psychological factors interact in war trauma; psycho- and mental health needs that arise from war; and justice as a healing factor.
