MHPSS in the Middle East (Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Turkey) The armed conflict in Syria and the associated refugee crisis in the region are still ongoing 10 years after they began. Refugees, internally displaced people and vulnerable members of the host population are suffering high levels of psychosocial distress as a result. Despite numerous humanitarian and development-oriented measures, there are too few local and regional options to care for psychosocially distressed groups. Objective The professional and methodological knowledge of actors working in mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) is improved and enables the application of context-, trauma- and gender-sensitive approaches for psychosocially distressed people in the Middle East. |
