S1 E7 Christina Lamb interview

<p>Christina Lamb's latest book, Our Bodies, Their Battlefield, gives voice to women in conflict across four continents, exposing how rape is used by armies, terrorists and militias as a weapon to humiliate, terrify and carry out ethnic cleansing. Though rape was formalised as an international war crime in 1919, the International Criminal Court has convicted no one. This startling book calls on us to listen and to act against this, the world’s most neglected war crime. &nbsp;One of Britain’s leading foreign correspondents, Lamb has reported from most of the world’s hotspots since she was named Young Journalist of the Year in 1989 for her coverage of mujaheddin fighting Soviet forces in Afghanistan. Since then she has won 14 major awards including Europe’s top war reporting prize, the Prix Bayeux. She was made an OBE in 2013 and is an honorary fellow of University College, Oxford. &nbsp;&nbsp;‘A wake-up call... These women’s stories will make you weep and rage.’ – Amal Clooney<br> <br> <br> </p>
