COVID and international military conflicts have highlighted mental health impacts under adverse conditions. Around the world, people have experienced significant isolation, grief, and impaired communication. Through postal history, we gain unique and exciting insights into those challenges, adversities, and responses to positive interventions.
Through the lens of Japanese World War I prisoner of war postal history, presenter Harold Krische examines how prisoners of war responded to the mental health and isolation challenges, how effectively they coped, and the circumstances that allowed those opportunities to prevail. This program touches on the postal history and methods for research with the postal history and ephemera associated with the camps.
