How can we situate trauma, PTSD and street children and the impact of neoliberal policies on public health across the region, especially Egypt and Lebanon? 2. How do we understand and deploy intersectionality in the context of the MENA and the Global ME more broadly? 3. With reference to Kanaaneh’s book and other writings on women and public health, how can we understand the role of women and gender, and especially women’s reproductive lives and health vis-a-vis various national(ist) imaginaries, identities and discourses, both in sovereign Arab/Muslim countries (e.g., Egypt, Morocco, Iran) and Israel and the Occupied Territories. 4. Explore how examples of literature we’ve read — Frankenstein in Baghdad and Lissa in particular — can be used as sources for documenting and understanding issues related to public health in the GME. 5. How do we situate CoVid with ongoing experiences of underdevelopment and the ways previous pandemics have impacted efforts towards modernization across the GME           Omar Dewachi, “Iraqibacter and the Pathologies of Intervention,” available here  (Links to an external site.)   Hannah Emerson, “When International Psychiatric Aid Gets it Wrong: Street Children in Cairo,” available here  (Links to an external site.)  (summary of Sweis article).   Goldstein & Braunschweiger, “When Health Care Is Decimated By War: COVID-19 in the Middle East and North Africa,” available here  (Links to an external site.) .   Bowleg, “The Problem With the Phrase Women and Minorities: Intersectionality—an Important Theoretical Framework for Public Health,” available here  (Links to an external site.) .
