Hello,
Since our start in September 2017, the International Association for Human Values (IAHV) has been developing the Trauma Relief Program reaching out thousands of people in affected communities, to help them restore confidence and move on after the disaster, providing physical and mental relief as well as material aid.
As part of our long term program this 5th Stage our trained monitors opened their activities in their own communities, sharing breathing techniques and socio-emotional tools that help the participant to remain calm in difficult situations and be able to take better decisions. After the physical damage from a disaster has been cleared, there are layers and layers of emotional
the devastation left behind.
Studies conducted by the Pan American Health Organization have shown that deep breathing and relaxation techniques are the basis for deep trauma relief, being the main intervention in any type of critical incident.
This is the last part of the final report of this project, in a long term program for Trauma Relief after 25 months of the earthquakes in September 2017, we created and trained a team of first responders for the natural disaster. We have reached + 10,300 people reached 09-2017 to 01- 2020
