Vera Mironova, International Security Fellow, Belfer Center, Harvard Kennedy School:  “Non State Armed Groups’ Human Resources.”

Mironova conducted field work in active conflict zones (Yemen, Iraq, Ukraine, and Palestinian territories) and post-conflict regions: Balkans (Bosnia, Kosovo, and Croatia), Africa (DR Congo, Rwanda, and Burundi), Central Asia (Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan), and Caucasus (Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan). From 2016-2017 she was embedded with Iraqi Special Operations Forces during Mosul Operation.
