我们的同伴有什么要说的?
听听一位前研究员的意见, 马特Berkau, about his research project with the 兵役倡议 at The Bush Institute and how it impacted his life.
Christopher Lu: Bush Institute 兵役倡议 (MSI)
I have had the opportunity to take part in MSI’s wellness initiative, through which we are addressing the Invisible Wounds of War. I have been helping the MSI team to develop two documents: a fact sheet on post-traumatic stress (PTS) and traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and a Call to Action to foster opportunities for everyone to recognize the issues facing injured warriors, 将他们与关怀联系起来, 并提供高质量的护理. Both of these were used to inform attendees and viewers of the Invictus Games Symposium on May 8, 2016.
Taking part in the Niemi Fellowship has been very interesting and challenging. I have enjoyed every day that I’ve been able to say that I get to go to work at the Bush Institute.
Meghann Bridgeman: Bush Institute 女性的主动性
I had the opportunity to evaluate the efficacy of the 女性的主动性 奖学金计划, which works to educate and empower women in the Middle East and North Africa. 我的工作丰富而有意义, ultimately exposing me to the many challenges that the Bush Institute faces when taking on such ambitious international work.
The fellowship culminated in a presentation of the things I had discovered in my data analysis that led to the discussion of possible tactics and solutions moving forward. It was wonderful to take part in that discussion and have exposure to the expertise of the Bush Institute staff members around the table.
