Presentation transcript:

Introduction Different kinds of crises such as war, natural disasters, accidents, fires and interpersonal violence including sexual and gender-based violence occur in the world. Although every person has strengths and abilities to cope with life challenges, mental health and psychosocial support can be beneficial in some cases. WHO, War Trauma Foundation and World Vision International published “Psychological First Aid: Field Guide” (PFA Field Guide) in 2011 to provide an easy-to-understand guidance on what to do and what not to do when trying to support a fellow human being after going through a serious crisis event. The PFA Field Guide has been endorsed by the UN, UNICEF, UNHCR, ICRC, Plan International, among others. The PFA has been widely employed in Japan after the Great East Japan Earthquake. This distance orientation program will promote participants’ understandings on basics of PFA, do’s and don’ts, and self-care technique, through web/VC-based lectures and discussions. The program will provide basic knowledge on how to offer PFA, as well as basics on mental health and psychosocial support after crises which will be an emerging priority in disaster risk management policy and programs. June 19, 2015 Japan: 11:00-14:30 Philippines: 10:00-13:30 Thailand: 9:00-12:30 Indonesia: 9:00-12:30 Videoconference-based session Psychological First Aid (PFA) Mutual Support for Resiliency after Crisis The program will be organized jointly by the World Bank/TDLC, UNU-IIGH, and the National Institute of Mental Health in Japan, in close partnership with WHO.
