Lamb, director of the Program on Crisis, Conflict, and Cooperation, sat down for a conversation with Global Health Policy Center Director J. Stephen Morrison, Project on Prosperity and Development Director Daniel F. Runde, and Global Food Security Project Director Johanna Nesseth Tuttle on whether U.S. civilian assistance abroad can reduce the need for military power.
