TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Prepared for medical peace work? JO - Tidsskrift for den Norske Laegeforening A1 - Melf, Klaus SP - 2553 EP - 2555 VL - 127 IS - 19 N2 - Physicians have a notable record in peace work; medically motivated truces and protests against nuclear arms and are two such examples. It is not required that a doctor who wishes to make a difference in this field has a special interest or particular affiliation. This comment applies a holistic approach to peace, and shows that violence prevention and peace promotion at all societal levels (including interpersonal violence and structural violence) is already integrated in medical training, research and practice. And to physicians who wish to strengthen their peace skills, several training opportunities are now emerging.
