The New Barbarianism - Film Screening & Panel Discussion

The Stanford Center for Innovation in Global Health invites you to a private screening of The New Barbarianism followed by a panel discussion with the film's executive producer and director Stephen Morrison, co-director and writer Justin Kenny and Stanford scholars Paul Wise, Ertharin Cousin and Michele Barry.

Medical and humanitarian workers are increasingly in the crosshairs as hospitals and aid centers have become part of the battlefield in today's wars. The New Barbarianism is a highly acclaimed CSIS Global Health Policy Center original feature documentary (58 minutes) that examines the crisis facing the norms of international humanitarian law, its causes, the limited international response and possible ways forward through dozens of interviews and original footage obtained from inside Syria, Yemen and Afghanistan.
