The Role of Public Health in the Prevention of War with Bill Wiist

Health and Health Care Forum

Host Roberta Hall presents a conversation with Bill Wiist that includes excerpts from a talk he gave at Oregon State University titled, "The Role of Public Health in the Prevention of War."

Professor Wiist is a member of the Public Health Working Group on the Primary Prevention of War, and a courtesy faculty member of OSU's Global Health program, as well as a retired member of the Northern Arizona University faculty.

The international working group is advocating for all departments of Public Health to integrate into their curriculum courses on peace advocacy and the prevention of war, courses that also teach students about the effects of war on public health.

Bill Wiist now lives in Newport. Oregon.
