Hospital Ships Adrift? Part 1: A Systematic Literature Review Characterizing Us Navy Hospital Ship Humanitarian And Disaster Response, 2004-2012., Derek J. Licina

Global Health Faculty Publications

Background: United States foreign policy is tied extensively to health initiatives, many related to the use of military assets. Despite substantial resource investment by the US Department of Defense (DoD) in hospital ship humanitarian assistance and disaster response missions, the impact of this investment is unclear.

Methods: A systematic literature review of both peer-reviewed and grey literature using eight databases representing the international community and multiple sectors was conducted.

Missionaries In Latin America: A Study On Short-Term Missionaries And The People They Help, Katharine Serio May 2013

Missionaries In Latin America: A Study On Short-Term Missionaries And The People They Help, Katharine Serio

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The last few years have seen the emergence of growing anthropological interest in short-term mission work, examining the phenomenon though a variety of denominations and mission locations around the world and analyzing the representations and experiences of both the host communities and mission teams traveling to them. This thesis explores how United Methodist short-term mission participants attempt to embody an ideal "mission self" while doing missionary work and the role that narratives about the experience at home played in this. I examine the ways in which members of a Louisiana based UMC team on a medical mission conceptualized their trip …
