This week in Episode 137 we strike out with Colombia Calling and
take a serious turn and talk to Roxanne Krystalli in Boston.
Krystalli is a researcher and humanitarian practitioner with an
interest in questions arriving at the intersection of gender,
violence, armed conflict, and victimhood based at Feinstein
International Center.
Krystalli has served as a researcher, advisor and consultant on
issues related to gender and conflict for various UN agencies,
international organizations, and community-based groups. This has
involved working with ex-combatants, victims and survivors of
violence, and fellow researchers and humanitarian practitioners in
Egypt, Pakistan, Colombia, Israel and the Palestinian Territories,
Uganda, Sudan, Guatemala, Mexico, and other areas.
Her understanding of and love for Colombia is unquestioned and here
we talk to her about the peace dialogues and what Colombia is
experiencing. As you guessed, with Krystalli's knowledge, I am well
out of my depth!
