In our next #moralinjury webinar we will discuss the importance of examining the collective values, laws & political decisions that place individuals in morally injurious situations, often leaving a very few to suffer the consequences of collective choices

Great piece from David Wood, noting the profound trauma Ukrainian civilians are experiencing.
“There is something in them that has been shattered, notions of humanity and who human beings are. It is hard to put back together.”

A good analysis of moral injury, history, imperial forces intertwined with atonement theology.

I've posted some reflections on moral injury and the situation in Afghanistan on the blog.

While here weren't any "good" options left in Afghanistan, clearly this one will cause most of those who were there some moral trauma.
Shay's notion of MI as the betrayal of "what's right" springs to mind. Check in on your OEF vets.

This is a classic example of a systemic "betrayal of what's right" by policy makers that breeds moral injury in military members and veterans who experience moral anger and contempt for the government. Same situation in US with the SIV program.

This is a gruesome and tragic accounting of the continued impact of violence and moral injury that all too often is ignored - death, drugs and traumatised families. It is a harrowing but important read.

A great article here that talks about the increasing parallels between discussions about moral injury in military and Covid-19 healthcare contexts.

A terrifying glimpse at how the pandemic is creating fears of moral injury in healthcare workers.
Also here - an implicit affirmation that moral injury arises from acting in life and death situations - what military members deal with frequently in war.
