Collective Trauma, Collective Healing

is a guide for mental health professionals working in response to large-scale political violence or natural disaster. It provides a framework that practitioners can use to develop their own community-based, collective approach to treating trauma and providing clinical services that are both culturally and contextually appropriate. Clinicians will come away from reading the book with a solid understanding of new roles that health and mental health professionals play in disasters—roles that encourage them to recognize and enhance the resilience and coping skills in families, organizations, and the community at large.

The Manual on Community-Based Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) in Emergencies and Displacement

The Manual on Community-Based Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) in Emergencies and Displacement describes the process IOM MHPSS programme managers should follow to design and implement relevant programmes in the aftermath of an emergency and with displaced populations.

While designed for IOM MHPSS programmes, the manual was compiled with the support of 100 experts from various agencies, NGOs and academic centres and links to more than 200 tools, articles and technical websites. As such, the manual is meant to be a reference for MHPSS experts working in the field, beyond IOM programming.

When the dust settles, what remains? Weaving together the voices of veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, Moral Injuries of War is a visionary production that brings the untold stories of war to the American public. The experience integrates 3D spatial audio with ambient visual design to create an immersive landscape of sound and light, inviting the audience to journey alongside veterans as they grapple with their memories.

 Innovating at the intersection of testimony, civic engagement, and community, this profound experience will make you question everything you believe about war.  

The immersive listening experience was followed by a live conversation with veterans and war journalists, hosted by the artist and psychologist, Jack Saul, and renowned psychotherapist, Esther Perel. The program closed with an exploration of embodied action, led by Leslie Salmon Jones and Jeff W. Jones of Afro Flow Yoga®. 

This production is made possible by a gift from the estate of Mitsuru Yasuhara in hopes of creating opportunities for beauty and healing in the face of trauma.
