Amy Neilson is an Australian-trained Rural Generalist and Fellow of the Australasian College of Tropical Medicine who works in Disaster and Humanitarian Medicine. In this episode, she sat down with our team member Angela to discuss what it is like to work in complex situations around the world and help unpack some of the big themes of providing foreign aid. Amy has worked in a wide variety of regional and remote Australian settings, in Sierra Leone with the International Federation of the Red Cross during the 2014-2015 Ebola outbreak, with Médecins Sans Frontières in Lebanon, South Sudan, Syria, Iraq and Ukraine, and with the ICRC in South Sudan. These experiences have only enhanced her passion for her career which she continues to show through her interest in the optimal delivery of health care to complex populations - particularly focused on conflict regions, and on the underlying structural violence visited upon vulnerable populations.
