Quotes by Susan Armstrong-Reid (?)

“Issues that China Convoy nurses confronted remain relevant today: the struggle to build healthcare facilities that are sustainable and tailored to local needs; the battle against agendas driven by political or economic rather than healthcare needs; the dogged leadership and personal resilience required to provide compassionate care and high standards of nursing service in difficult and dangerous circumstances; and the recognition that health and human security are inextricably interwoven.”
― Susan Armstrong-Reid, China Gadabouts: New Frontiers of Humanitarian Nursing, 1941–51

“What did it mean to give aid in a “Quakerly fashion”? How did Quaker ethics shape the Gadabouts’ collective memory of being unique among Western aid groups? What tensions within Convoy ranks resulted from the diversity of opinions on the Quaker Peace Testimony in practice?”
― Susan Armstrong-Reid, China Gadabouts: New Frontiers of Humanitarian Nursing, 1941–51

“UNRRA, whose mandate was to coordinate Allied relief, was viewed as a test case for future patterns of international organizations.3 Designed to prime the liberal economic order and foster democratic governments to preserve a peaceful world order, it was conceived as a vital program not only to save lives but also to safeguard American and British strategic interests. For many of its creators, UNRRA “reflected their faith in the ability to bind compassion and technocracy, to create a muscular, modernized, spirit of progress.”4”
― Susan Armstrong-Reid, China Gadabouts: New Frontiers of Humanitarian Nursing, 1941–51
